Sleeping Beauties

Apocalyptic drama: society reimagines with women's absence.

"Sleeping Beauties" is your ticket into a thought-provoking world where the dynamics between genders are intricately explored. Imagine waking up one day to find half the population mysteriously gone. This King duo makes you contemplate such a reality, probing into the psyche of societies fractured by the supernatural. If you're intrigued by complexities of human behavior under stress and the eerie twists that only a King—two, in this case—can deliver, this book's for you.

Description

In a future so real and near it might be now, something happens when women go to sleep; they become shrouded in a cocoon-like gauze. If they are awakened, if the gauze wrapping their bodies is disturbed or violated, the women become feral and spectacularly violent; and while they sleep they go to another place. The men of our world are abandoned, left to their increasingly primal devices. One woman, however, the mysterious Evie, is immune to the blessing or curse of the sleeping disease. Is Evie a medical anomaly to be studied, or is she a demon who must be slain?
