Father Sleep

by Stephen Short

Overview

Father Sleep is the story of a middle-aged man, Jeff Vickers, who dreams for the very first time in his life and is terrified by what he sees. He seeks professional help in the form of an oddball "oneiromancer," Gilbert, who promises he can "fix" his dreams. Jeff finds that Gilbert's help isn't what he bargained for as his dreams spill over into his waking life and threaten his marriage with his wife, Kate, and everything else he thought he knew.

Father Sleep introduces its readers to the eerily-quiet world of Jeff Vickers that leaves you waiting for answers and wondering what's going on right alongside him... until you're not.
