In 1960s Omaha, two dozen men slip into a private and unspoken pathology. Their sleeps are barren and dreamless, their outlooks listless and lethargic. For a period of some weeks, they shut down entirely. Little is known of it until many decades later, when America trades in the social medium of dreams, and a low-ranking engineer makes a startling discovery. The plague threatens to return, this time on a massive scale, and story lines converge in pursuit of its secrets -- dreams and memory, and the onset of enduring sleep.
