Lee Fenton can't sleep. He goes to the doctor, and finds out that he has a terminal form of insomnia called Fatal Familial Insomnia.
A fairly successful author, he realizes the one good thing is that he won't have to worry so much about his retirement fund anymore. He buys a luxury RV and sets off across the country, enlisting his best friend to help him with the driving. They meet some girls, and they end up coming along on the trip.
Together, the group takes an all-American trip. It's the ultimate vacation, the perfect way for Lee to spend his limited time.
But as Lee sleeps less and less each night, he begins to see visions. Visions of a monster that is stalking him, following him around the country. And it wants him...
AWAKE is a tale of horror, hallucinations, friendship, America, and love, told through the eyes of our new Lost Generation of twenty-somethings.
