Description: "When promising psychiatrist James Richardson is offered the job opportunity of a lifetime, he is thrilled and doesn't look back. One of his tasks is to manage a controversial project - a pioneering therapy in which extremely disturbed patients are kept asleep for months. As Richardson settles into his new life, he begins to sense something uncanny about the sleeping patients - six women, forsaken by society. Why is the trainee nurse so on edge when she spends the night alone with them? And what can it mean when, one night, all the sleepers start dreaming at the same time? It's not long before Richardson finds himself questioning everything he knows about the human mind as he attempts to uncover the shocking secrets of The Sleep Room..." --Publisher description.
