The first British crime novel by Mark Billingham to feature D.I. Tom Thorne, Sleepyhead is the story of what at first appears to be an epidemic of young women dying from strokes, but when Alison Willet survives after being deliberately induced, it becomes apparent there is something far more sinister at work. Alison is the only person able to reveal the identity of the killer, but she has been rendered completely unable to move or communicate. Thorne, and the neurologist looking after Alison, start to realise the killer just wants to put people into a state where they cannot do anything but think. Thorne realises the case will not be solved by normal methods - before he can find out who did it, he has to understand why he did it.
