Take a sip, lose your soul.

His new life has its perks, like spending time with his lovely new "sister," Nadya. But Jax soon learns Sanga is part of a demonic conspiracy to turn people into soulless sociopaths.

Suspense Magazine
“The Sleepwalkers was one of the best horror novels I’ve ever read… period.”
“Gates begins this YA novel with a sense of foreboding that carries through the rest of the story and leaves you on the edge of your seat the entire way. The Sleepwalkers is the perfect horror story to tell around a campfire or read on a stormy night—as long as you don’t forget to leave the lamp or flashlight on when you go to sleep.”
