Summary
‘The Circle meets Black Mirror in a thrilling, plausible and gripping debut. Frighteningly inventive.’ John Marrs, bestselling author of The One
Don’t close your eyes. Don’t fall asleep. Don’t let them in.
Thea is an insomniac; she hasn’t slept more than three hours a night for years.
So when an ad for a sleep trial that promises to change her life pops up on her phone, Thea knows this is her last chance at finding any kind of normal life.
Soon Thea’s sleeping for longer than she has in a decade, and awakes feeling transformed. So much so that at first she’s willing to overlook the oddities of the trial – the lack of any phone signal; the way she can’t leave her bedroom without permission; the fact that all her personal possessions are locked away, even her shoes.
But it soon becomes clear that the trial doesn’t just want to help Thea sleep. It wants to control her sleep…
An unputdownable, gripping psychological thriller for fans of The One, Behind Her Eyes and Girl A!
‘A twisty, action-packed plot make this intriguing thriller unputdownable.’ Roz Watkins, author of the DI Meg Dalton series
'A brilliantly original premise which is horrifyingly believable – one for insomniacs everywhere.’ Catherine Cooper, author of The Chalet

Critic reviews
"An original and action-packed thriller, with a perfectly unnerving premise that hooked me from the start." (Philippa East, author of Little White Lies)
"The Circle meets Black Mirror in a thrilling, plausible and gripping debut. Frighteningly inventive." (John Marrs, best-selling author of The One)
"A complex, clever novel with memorable characters and a dash of sci-fi. A truly gripping rollercoaster ride through a dark, dystopian land." (Vikki Patis, author of Girl, Lost)

Gripped me from the start
As a part-time insomniac I thought this subject a fantastic idea for a book, and it didn't disappoint! Looking forward to hearing more from this author.

Struggling!
Not much I can really say as I’m not finished but this is a real struggle to get through. Unsure if it’s the unlikable characters or the voices or the 3rd person narrative but I’m struggling to stay focused listening to it so it might go on the back burner. Sorry!
