Sobre este título
In the city that never sleeps, it’s not always easy to share what’s on your mind with the people who know you best. Huddled in an all-night diner over coffee and pancakes, a lonely middle-aged mom, an injured baseball pro, an elusive retiree, and a young waitress examine the thoughts that plague them in the middle of the night.
Empty-nester Sybil does what she does best: rolls up her sleeves and spearheads the efforts to turn this group of strangers into friends. Aimless after an injury threatens to ruin his career, Zeke finds genuine connection among the unlikely group. Tight-lipped Julian, who’s seemingly adrift in retirement and attempting to rebuild a relationship with his daughter, expands their circle when he takes their cagey diner waitress, Betty, under his wing. Betty, cautious about strangers and uncertain about strokes of good luck, entertains the trio in an attempt to resolve her own problems, which she keeps close to the vest.
Within a few restless months, the group of strangers have become a fragile family. And when one of them goes missing in the dead of night, they’re thrust into a propulsive mystery pulled straight from the true-crime podcasts Sybil obsesses over. Though ill-prepared and unequipped for the job, they begin to piece together the clues left behind. In chasing down answers, they uncover a reason for their friend’s disappearance, and are forced to wrestle with the question of how well you can really know anyone—and once you do, how much are you willing to risk to save them? And in doing so, save yourself?
Resumo da Crítica
“The night may feel calm, but it is anything but quiet. Allison Winn Scotch has crafted not only a gripping mystery that unfolds under the cover of darkness, but also a story where kind people once again care for their fellow human beings. If this book was a dream, I didn't want to wake up. Put on the coffee. This one is worth staying up late for.”—New York Times bestselling author Steven Rowley
"This is my favorite kind of novel: a taut, compulsively readable mystery wrapped around a found family of beautifully drawn, utterly relatable characters you’ll want to linger with long after the last page. Propulsive and tender in equal measure—I couldn’t put it down.”—Marissa Stapley, New York Times bestselling author of Lucky and The Lightning Bottles
"The Insomniacs is a masterful blend of character-driven storytelling and riveting mystery. Allison Winn Scotch captures the hush of the midnight hour and fills it with longing, connection, and the kind of quiet heroism that unfolds when ordinary people decide to care—deeply and dangerously—for one another. These characters will linger with you long after the last page, their unlikely bond reminding us that sometimes, the most profound family is the one you find by accident. This novel is tender, smart, and utterly absorbing—don’t miss it."—Julie Clark, New York Times bestselling author of The Ghostwriter
“Quirky, clever and tightly plotted, The Insomniacs lives up to its name—I stayed up late into the night turning pages, dying to know what happened next. Allison Winn Scotch is a master at her craft and just keeps getting better.”—USA Today bestselling author Colleen Oakley
