Sleepless by Charlie Huston

3.0

Very interesting concept- a virus prevents people from being able to sleep, which causes eventual painful death. A drug is on the market (Dreamer) that can help someone sleep, but does not prevent the death

It is written from the view of two different people- the narrator, who is an assassin, and then the main character Park. Park is a cop whose wife has contracted the disease. He goes deep undercover to try and find the root of the Dreamer black market.

While it kept me interested enough to finish it, I was highly confused throughout much of the book, and sadly the ending did not seem to clear much up for me. Perhaps I just didn't "get it", but I don't understand the whole reasoning for much of what was done in the book.
