Dark secrets past and present collide in Sleepless, a haunting novel of guilt and retribution from Romy Hausmann, the international bestselling author of Dear Child.

It's been years since Nadja Kulka was convicted of a cruel crime. After being released from prison, she's wanted nothing more than to live a normal life: nice flat, steady job, even a few friends. But when one of those friends, Laura von Hoven--free-spirited beauty and wife of Nadja's boss--kills her lover and begs Nadja for her help, Nadja can't seem to refuse.

The two women make for a remote house in the woods, the perfect place to bury a body. But their plan quickly falls apart and Nadja finds herself outplayed, a pawn in a bizarre game in which she is both the perfect victim and the perfect murderer...

Industry Reviews

"Hausmann's novel has the feel of a nightmare, unfolding at breakneck speed and exposing the terrifying vulnerability of a woman who wants nothing more than to be loved."
--Sunday Times

"Fine story crafting and impressive character depth combine to produce chilling, realistic complexity."
--Booklist

But Hausmann's dark new psychological thriller surpasses the earlier one in keeping the reader guessing...Hausmann manages to seamlessly tie all these threads and timelines together for a story that will keep the reader on the edge of their seat...By the end it will all make sense and you'll be stunned. It's seldom I recommend a book filled with mostly unlikeable characters, but if you like intelligently told, twisty tales, this one is for you."
--Deadly Pleasures

"In present-day Germany, a woman burdened with the darkest of secrets from her brutal childhood becomes an unwitting participant in a fatal game of murder and deceit...Feverish, relentlessly tense..."
--Kirkus
