From bestselling author
Charlie Huston comes a novel about the fears that find us all during
dark times and the courage and sacrifice that can save us in the face of
unimaginable odds. Gripping, unnerving, exhilarating, and haunting,
Sleepless is well worth staying up for.
What former philosophy
student Parker Hass wanted was a better world. A world both just and
safe for his wife and infant daughter. So he joined the LAPD and tried
to make it that way. But the world changed. Struck by waves of chaos
carried in on a tide of insomnia. A plague of sleeplessness.
Park
can sleep, but he is wide awake. And as much as he wishes he was
dreaming, his eyes are open. He has no choice but to see it all. That's
his job. Working undercover as a drug dealer in a Los Angeles ruled in
equal parts by martial law and insurgency, he's tasked with cutting off
illegal trade in Dreamer, the only drug that can give the infected what
they most crave: sleep.
After a year of lost leads and false
trails, Park stumbles into the perilous shadows cast by the
pharmaceuticals giant behind Dreamer. Somewhere in those shadows, at the
nexus of disease and drugs and money, a secret is hiding. Drawn into
the inner circle of a tech guru with a warped agenda and a special use
for the sleepless themselves, Park thinks he knows what that secret
might be.
To know for certain, he will have to go deeper into
the restless world. His wife has become sleepless, and their daughter
may soon share the same fate. For them, he will risk what they need most
from him: his belief that justice
must be served. Unknown to him,
his choice ties all of their futures to the singularly deadly nature of
an aging mercenary who stalks Park.
The deeper Park stumbles
through the dark, the more he is convinced that it is obscuring the real
world. Bring enough light and the shadows will retreat. Bring enough
light and everyone will see themselves again. Bring enough light and he
will find his way to the safe corner, the harbor he's promised his
family. Whatever the cost to himself.
It is July 2010.
The future is coming.
Open your eyes.
