In 1982, two teenagers-serial killer survivor Emma Lewis and US
Marshal candidate Travis Bell-are recruited by the FBI to interview
convicted juvenile killers and provide insight and advice on cold
cases. From the start, Emma and Travis develop a quick friendship,
gaining information from juvenile murderers that even the FBI can't
crack. But when the team is called in to give advice on an active
case-a serial killer who exclusively hunts teenagers-things begin
to unravel. Working against the clock, they must turn to one of the
country's most notorious incarcerated murderers for help: teenage
sociopath Simon Gutmunsson. Despite Travis's objections, Emma
becomes the conduit between Simon and the FBI team. But while Simon
seems to be giving them the information they need to save lives,
he's an expert manipulator playing a very long game...and he has
his sights set on Emma. Captivating, harrowing, and chilling, None
Shall Sleep is an all-too-timely exploration of not only the
monsters that live among us, but also the monsters that live inside
us.
A historical mystery about a girl who risks everything to track down a
vicious serial killer-for fans of The Enigma Game and Last Night at the
Telegraph Club.
Virginia, 1943: World War II is raging in Europe and on the Pacific
front when Kit Sutherland is recruited to help the war effort as a
codebreaker at Arlington Hall, a former girls' college now serving as
the site of a secret US Signal Intelligence facility. But Kit is soon
involved in another kind of fight: government girls are being brutally
murdered in Washington DC, and when Kit stumbles onto a bloody homicide
scene, she is drawn into the hunt for the killer.
To find the man responsible for the gruesome murders and bring him to
justice, Kit joins forces with other female codebreakers at Arlington
Hall-gossip queen Dottie Crockford, sharp-tongued intelligence maven
Moya Kershaw, and cleverly resourceful Violet DuLac from the segregated
codebreaking unit. But as the girls begin to work together and develop
friendships-and romance-that they never expected, two things begin to
come clear: the murderer they're hunting is closing in on them...and
Kit is hiding a dangerous secret.
After a harrowingly close contact with juvenile sociopath Simon
Gutmunsson, junior FBI consultants Emma Lewis and Travis Bell went
their separate ways: Emma rejected her Quantico offer and Travis
stayed to train within a new unit of the FBI Behavioural Science
division. But the unit's latest case is feeling eerily familiar and
Kristin Gutmunsson-Simon Gutmunsson's eccentric twin-reaches out to
Travis to send a warning: Emma is in peril. When Travis and Kristin
turn up evidence that points back to Daniel Huxton, the serial
killer that Emma had escaped, things become more complicated. With
a copycat on the loose, Emma returns to Quantico and is thrown back
into her past traumas. Compelled to prevent more tragedy-even if it
means putting herself in danger-Emma turns to Simon for help once
again. But Simon is keeping secrets that could impact their entire
investigation. Will the team be able to stop the Huxton copycat
before time runs out for his next victims?
