In the 1990s, the CIA developed a small group of spies, referred to as Sleepers, gifted with the ability to connect with other people in their dreams. Known only to an elite few, this experimental program was used solely for espionage, until now. Kyle Manning, a former Sleeper agent, is confronted within the dream world by another agent, Steven, bleeding to death. Steven informs Kyle that a previously unknown Sleeper is hunting down and killing all of the original agents. Kyle is contacted by the former head of the Sleeper Program, who pleads with him to return; he reluctantly agrees. What Kyle finds will force him to the limits of his abilities, his loyalties and his own soul. In the end, Kyle is faced with the prospect of living a life worse than Hell itself.
