The government promised safety from an existential threat: sleep in a protected facility and wake when it's over.Will Mercer's family checked in.He didn't.When reports of a devastating global terror event plunge the world into panic, citizens are offered salvation through the Sleep Directive-a medically induced coma designed to outlast the crisis. Most people welcome the chance to sleep through the fear.Will doesn't trust the footage. Or the government's sudden urgency to make the world unconscious.After refusing the Directive, Will finds himself hunted as one of the last waking witnesses in a city that feels disturbingly untouched. The lights still work. Doors stand unlocked. And the official story begins to unravel.As Will searches for his missing family and forms an uneasy alliance with another fugitive, he uncovers a truth far more terrifying than the threat everyone was told to fear.Because what's waiting on the other side of sleep isn't safety.And waking up may be humanity's last chance.
