Narcoleptic Southie PI Mark Genevich returns in this sequel to The
Little Sleep from the Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Survivor
Song and The Cabin at the End of the World.
Like most private eyes, Mark Genevich is something of a lone wolf. So
group therapy isn't a great fit. But his landlord/mother is convinced it
will help his narcolepsy--ignoring the fact that his disorder is a
physical condition. Truth is, he has the time. It's been a year and a
half since his last big case, or any case.
It's never a wise choice to go on a two-day bender with someone you meet
in group therapy, but there's something about Gus that intrigues
Genevich. And when his new drinking buddy asks him to protect a female
friend who's being stalked, the PI finally has a case.
Unfortunately, he's about to sleepwalk right into a very real nightmare.
Before long he's a suspect in an arson investigation and running afoul
of everyone from the cops to a litigious lawyer and a bouncer with anger
management issues. Genevich must keep his wits about him--always a
challenge for a detective prone to unexpected blackouts and
hallucinations--to solve the crime and live to show up at his next
therapy session.
In Paul Tremblay's follow-up to The Little Sleep, unreliable narrator
Mark Genevich once again leads readers on a surreal and suspenseful wild
ride through the mean streets of South Boston and his own dreamlike
reality.
