Sleeping – Evan Baldock

During her charity gap year in Somalia, Louise is radicalised and brainwashed, returning to the UK as a ‘sleeper agent’ prepared to carry out unspeakable acts of terrorism.

Over the years she falls in love with a high-flying MP while also remaining loyal to ‘the cause’, helping a terrorist group attack the UK.

As the fog starts to clear Louise refuses to help with  further attacks, regretting everything she’s done and committing herself to promoting the good in Islam.

The group demand one final act – to target the home and office of her husband, striking the heart of the UK Government – but her refusal is met with threats to her children.

Will Louise buckle and agree?

Or will she come to her senses and come clean?
