Wakeless is a police procedural fused with straight-up sci-fi action/adventure--Michael Connelly meets Michael Crichton. The near future... Reality is blended (virtual, augmented, and holographic) and artificially intelligent robots have recently become available to the average consumer. In Victoria, Canada, Constable Joseph Sault is out of touch with his children, possibly losing his wife to another man and his father to dementia, and constantly in trouble with his superiors. Feeling isolated and powerless, he finds solace only in his work. It's a shaky balance that probably isn't really working. Investigating a simple traffic accident lands him in the middle of what might be a conspiracy with world-shaking implications. When the prime suspect turns out to be his wife's employer, his work and personal life collide. And, worse yet, his only ally is a distractingly attractive hologram. Cornered and out of options, Sault risks everything in a desperate bid to outwit the man who has the world's most powerful artificial intelligence at his command.
