'A thrilling and often hilarious road trip across America in the
very near future, told by a winning and murderous narrator' Gillian
Flynn, author of Gone Girl Sleepwalk's hero, Will Bear, is a man
with so many aliases that he simply thinks of himself as the Barely
Blur. At fifty years old, he's been living off the grid for over
half his life. A good-natured henchman with a complicated and
lonely past and a passion for LSD microdosing, he spends his time
hopscotching across state lines in his beloved camper van, running
sometimes shady often dangerous errands for a powerful and ruthless
operation he's never troubled himself to learn too much about. Out
of the blue, one of Will's many burner phones heralds a call from a
twenty-year-old woman claiming to be his biological daughter. She
says she's the product of one of his long-ago sperm donations; he's
half certain she's AI. She needs his help. She's entrenched in a
widespread and nefarious plot involving Will's employers, and for
Will to continue to have any contact with her increasingly fuzzes
the line between the people he is working for and the people he's
running from. With his signature blend of haunting emotional
realism and fast-paced intrigue, Dan Chaon populates his fractured
America with characters who ring all too true. Sleepwalk examines
where we've been and where we're going and the connections that
bind us, no matter how far we travel to dodge them or how cleverly
we hide. 'Dan Chaon has given us one of the most intriguing,
original, and fully-realized characters in recent memory; that he's
the center of an absolute page-turner is the icing on the cake.
Sleepwalk is riveting, propulsive, chilling, and (no shocker) pure
genius' Rebecca Makkai, author of The Great Believers
