It's rare for a young woman to die from a stroke and when three such deaths occur in short order it starts to look like an epidemic. Then a sharp pathologist notices traces of benzodiazepine in one of the victim's blood samples and just traceable damage to the ligaments in her neck and their cause of death is changed from 'natural' to murder. The police aren't making much progress in their hunt for the killer until he appears to make a mistake: Alison Willetts is found alive and D.I. Tom Thorne believes the murderer has made a mistake which ought to allow them to get on his tracks. But it was the others who were his mistakes: he doesn't want to take life he just wants to put people into a state where they cannot move cannot talk cannot do anything but think. When Thorne helped by the neurologist looking after Alison starts to realise what he is up against he knows the case is not going to be solved by normal methods - before he can find out who did it he has to understand why he's doing it.

TheBookPeople
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.
