description: It started simply enough. Someone lost a piece of paper and an old friend asked Ben Sterndale to find it for him. And Ben will do anything for an old friend... as long as he pays cash.But as the trail winds across Europe, things begin to look more than a little suspicious. Why are so many other people interested in the paper - like the gun-toting stamp collector Dr Kirchner and the beautiful American Wanda Brent?And what are The Shapes of Sleep?The story becomes more than a mystery; by turns funny, fascinating and frightening, it is an incisive sketch of modern times.
