Description
In the small town of Stevens Crossing, unexplained, terrifying domestic violence, murders, suicides, and road rage begin occurring. Whole families sleep poorly, and because insomnia seems to spread like an infection, Dr. Kris Jensen is asked to help the Health Department investigate.
Through interviews with affected families, local doctors, and the police, Kris learns that insomnia is often heralded by a peculiar rash, strongly suggesting an unknown virus disturbs sleep with deadly psychiatric consequences.
Thousands of visitors to an imminent town festival will risk multi-state spread of infection but Kris's warning about transmission of a virus is rejected by town officials and her insomnia virus concern is ridiculed by outside experts.
Stevens Crossing turns against Kris with threats on her life, but she carries on and identifies two early insomniacs who may have been infected from a ring-tailed lemur possibly linked to a German neuropharmaceutical facility. As she works to gather more information, she encounters resistance at every turn.
Will Kris be able to discover the origin of the virus and determine how to stop it before it spreads nationwide?
