Kiss Me Deadly: Speakeasies, Bootleggers, Flappers - Blackmail and Deception on the Streets of Prohibition Era Manhattan

By Raeder Lomax

KISS ME DEADLY, Book 2, Midnight Sleeper Series, continues the suspense with Beau LaHood and friends as they slip into the perilous intrigue of 1920s Prohibition as international politics and grievances are boiled up from the cauldron of World War 1. Nighttime Manhattan is filled with wharves and ships that breach the international waters off the Atlantic coast.

The name of the game is whiskey and to win it is to control by elimination. Meantime, the mysterious streets and architecture of Jazz Age New York-not the Modernism that later turns the city into a limbless and headless creature---sustain a world of hoofers, hustlers, bootleggers, and lovers where time ticks, not Toks. And to top it off, a well-protected secret that could embarrass and shame the powerful turns the city on itself.

Get Kiss Me Deadly and learn how power takes on power.
