We're also writing a second novel 'Carry Me Home.' But, for now, here is a brief outline of 'The Innocent Sleep.'
Award winning authors Paul Perry and Karen Gillece come
together as Karen Perry to deliver a compelling psychological thriller set in
present-day Dublin and Tangiers.
The course of Harry and Robin’s married life was set
when their only child, Dillon, was killed in an earthquake in Tangiers. Five
years on, their lives have returned to a fragile normality. That is until one
day in November 2010. As the snow falls in Dublin and amidst the melee of a
protest against a failing government, Harry catches sight of his dead son,
Dillon. Or does he? He rings his wife, desperate to tell her, but Robin has
some news of her own.
Later that night they meet and what is set in motion is
nothing less than a dark tale of secrets and lies. Harry and Robin must embark
on a journey into their shared past, a journey that demands they reevaluate
everything they believe to be true, and one that will test their love for each
other to the limit. A gripping and ultimately heart-breaking story of a young
married couple and their missing son, The
Innocent Sleep is a thrilling page-turner where the past returns to haunt
the present and where no one can be trusted, not even those you love the most.
