I've pretty much decided that Chris Bohjalian could write about the making of a jet engine and make it interesting enough for me to come back for more. Here he gives us a lesson in sleepwalking and other sleep disorders. Some I already knew about; some I did not, such as how sleepwalking can be passed down from one generation to the next.
And there he goes again with his female points of view, always done so well. It really is remarkable.
Annalee, a mother of two girls, has gone missing during a night when her husband was out of town. She has a history of sleepwalking and leaving the house, so it is presumed that got her into some predicament. There are multiple mysteries to be solved: What happened to the woman and where did she end up? Will the two daughters start sleepwalking now too as a result of this event? And who is the mysterious state cop who knows more about Annalee than her family does and is showing an interest in the older daughter?
The various mysteries had me guessing and nail biting until the very end. A great book I would highly recommend. My thanks to NetGalley and the publisher.
