What really happens when we go to sleep? Is there a “sandman” who helps us get to sleep? Do our dreams mean anything? Julia’s boyfriend, Griffin, dies in a car accident while driving home from her house. Now that he has become one of the mysterious sandmen who protect us while sleeping, he cannot leave Julia alone during her waking and sleeping hours. That is against the rules! Eron DeMarchelle, who has protected Julia from birth, is clearly threatened by this newcomer. As Eron’s 100 year term as a sandman is ending, and he has a chance to return to the living, he has to make some difficult choices. 224 pages Ages 14 and up
