Random Lucidity

Silver Medal Winner - 2015 eLit Book Awards "A remarkable narrative with no wasted chapters." - Portland Book Review "Adair's characters are engaging - with the malicious and gorgeously depicted Rita being particularly memorable." - Literary Fiction Book Review "It's impossible to read Adair's work and not scrutinize our own dreams and aspirations to answer the singular question: What would we attempt to do if we knew we couldn't fail?" - Barbara Devlin, bestselling Author of the Brethren of the Coast series "If you only read one book this year, this is the one you should choose." - Elizabeth Horton Newton, Author of View from the Sixth Floor "Random Lucidity" is unlike any other book I've ever read, and that's a wonderful thing." - Mark Fine, Author of The Zebra Affaire "It is difficult to put into words just how much I enjoyed Random Lucidity and, days after finishing it, I found myself missing the main characters and their stories." - Kathyrn Hodgson, Author of No Damage "I will say this, as much as I loved this story, I really want to read "Johnson Rambling: A Novel". Those sections of the novel were intense, shocking, and had me in a vice grip." - Jennifer Powell, Author of Stolen "Adair has skilfully crafted a story that expertly weaves around an 'inner' story. It's not confusing but endearing, both plots equally intriguing and quickly get under your skin." - Jackie Parry, Author, Of Foreign Build RANDOM LUCIDITY A struggling literary agent believes he hits it big when he discovers a mentally challenged man scribbling a world-class murder mystery into ragged notebooks in the park. Ignoring all of the red flags about this man and his all-too-real story, Reggie risks all he has to bring that story to the masses, not the least of which is his relationship with the stunning Meghan James. Random Lucidity, a suspenseful literary thriller set in modern day Chicago, puts Reggie's life and the murderous rants of a troubled man on paths that are destined to intersect. Along the way, Reggie is faced with impossible choices about love and ambition, and the challenges that confront us all eventually.
