Sleeper Code

Sleeper Code by Tom Sniegoski

Part 1 in the Sleeper Conspiracy, an action thriller series.

The hero of this first book in the Sleeper Conspiracy series, Tom Lovett, has led a lonely, sheltered life. His father's job as a troubleshooter for high-technology firms means that they move frequently, and he is home-schooled because of his condition. Tom has narcolepsy, which causes him to unexpectedly fall asleep and to have violent hallucinations. During these "attacks," which can last for days at a time, a second personality takes over-that of a trained assassin-causing him to do murderous things on orders from a rogue leader of the Janus Project (whose mission was to "artificially create a form of multiple personality disorder where two distinct personas would exist in one body"). The tale takes a while to gather steam, and some readers may find the premise a stretch. Others will quickly turn the pages once Tom learns of his two personas and becomes determined to set things right-but not before coming face to face with himself (literally) and learning some hard truths. Part two, Sleeper Agenda (ISBN 1-59514-053-0), is releasing simultaneously. Ages 12-up.Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
