Insomnia - Stephen King

You’ll lose a lot of sleep.

Ralph does. At first he starts waking up earlier. And earlier. then the hallucinations start – the colours, shapes and strange auras. Not to mention the bald doctors who always turn up at the scene of a death.

That’s when Ralph begins to lose a lot more than sleep. When he begins to understand why his hitherto mild-mannered friend, Ed, is getting out of control – dangerously so. And why his home town is about to become the new Armageddon.

An evil of unimaginable proportions has found a way in and Ralph has only one chance to beat it. The stakes are high – they always are when you’re playing for human souls. With a Joker in the pack…a bald one with a rusty scalpel.
