I KILLED SLEEP
A dark, biting sci-fi thriller that grips and doesn't let go.
Don De Kalp invented history's most dangerous pill:
No more need to sleep.
No fatigue. No nights. No escape.
The world cheers this miracle-endless productivity, insane profits... humans turned into 24/7 robots.
But here's the catch:
Curienne de Gystance: Queen of home robotics, her empire crumbles-if humans don't sleep, they don't need her machines.
Nestor Komak: Crime lord who wants the pill to supercharge his troops, orgies, and deals.
President Farrok Ventura: Will lock down the secret, sacrificing an entire island, his army... and his family.
Linda Beaumont: Don's new assistant, trapped between a hallucinating billionaire, a stiletto-heeled HR exec with multiple versions, and a plot where her son becomes bargaining chip.
Alicia Barnes: Dead journalist's daughter, tracing De Kalp from luxury clinics and hysterical palaces to secret hangars and combat robots-uncovering a medical secret blurring memories, hallucinations, and reality.
At the storm's center:
A brilliant, cowardly, cynical, all-too-human guy.
Don didn't just "kill sleep."
He ignited economic, political, criminal... and intimate war.

Black Mirror, American Psycho, Succession, acid dystopias;
