Description

When promising young psychiatrist James Richardson is offered the job opportunity of a lifetime by the charismatic Dr. Hugh Maitland, he is thrilled. Setting off to take up his post at Wyldehope Hall in deepest Suffolk, Richardson doesn't look back. One of his tasks is to manage Maitland's most controversial project--a pioneering therapy in which extremely disturbed patients are kept asleep for months. If this radical and potentially dangerous procedure is successful, it could mean professional glory for both doctors.

As Richardson settles into his new life, he begins to sense something uncanny about the sleeping patients--six women, forsaken by society. Why is Maitland unwilling to discuss their past lives? Why is the trainee nurse so on edge when she spends nights alone with them? And what can it mean when all the sleepers start dreaming at the same time? In this atmospheric reinvention of the ghost story, Richardson finds himself questioning everything he knows about the human mind, as he attempts to uncover the shocking secrets of The Sleep Room . . .

Well, I liked the setting of the book but I really don’t get the ending. For me it just doesn’t add up and it makes no sense. If someone would explain it to me, I’d be very grateful. Edit: Ok guys I have to give this book five stars instead of three. I couldn’t quite understand what was happening but I really wanted to, so I wrote a message to Mr. Tallis himself. He explained everything to me and guys, it’s brilliant. Everything makes perfect sense now and I don’t know why I didn’t see it that way.
