A marriage made in heaven, a murder made in hell.
Why kill the man you love?
Lizzy was struggling, everyone could see.
He shouldn't have done those things.
He shouldn't have pushed her so hard.
And now her children, her marriage, her hope – gone.
Lizzy Dyson is on trial for her life. She knows she must pay for what she did, even if it wasn't planned, but will the jury believe her?
A whydunnit rather than a whodunnit, Sleep follows a woman on trial for killing her husband and his lover. Was it premeditated, a crime of passion, or a moment of madness? Told through a series of flashbacks and testimony, the struggles that Lizzy Dyson faced are revealed.
A suspense-filled psychological thriller, domestic noir, and courtroom drama. Sleep is a story about heartbreak and betrayal, and reveals what can drive a woman to murder.
Deals with the sensitive subjects of miscarriage, domestic violence and depression.
