Welcome to Sequoia County. Population: Declining fast.

January Swann has three rules for surviving an apocalypse, or even just Sequoia County: don't make eye contact with Frazier Loudermilk, don't take the shortcut past his farm, and never, ever assume the weird noise in the woods is just a deer. Tonight she's about to break all three.

But a run-in with a noticeably altered Frazier is only the tip of the iceberg. The neighbors are getting bitey. The book club has gone feral. And somewhere down in a Savannah bayou, an old shaman named Maman Solene just sent her very best operative to bring January in.

Because even though she doesn’t realize it, January Swann belongs to them. And they intend to have her. Unless the evil in Sequoia County gets her first.

As January is pulled into a secret war that's been hiding in plain sight for centuries, something old is waking up inside her. And it knows how to kill.

A new Sleeper is waking. Will January help save what's left of the world, or burn it down with everyone still inside?

Sleepers blends action, mystery, horror, and humor into an adventure where the monsters under the bed are very, very real.
