Cheshire, Mahi: The Lying Guest

You don‘t know her, but she‘s watching you... Hardworking and overworked, Anika is a talented surgeon at a London hospital. It‘s been some time since she‘s had a decent night‘s sleep, let alone a holiday. Not ideal for someone with parasomnia - a rare, often stress-induced, condition that causes sleepwalking blackouts. When a patient dies on her operating table, important people start asking questions and the media turns against her with zeal. She quickly becomes a pariah at work. Shafted to endless night shifts and then on suspended leave. It seems her only respite is to escape on a conveniently all-expenses-paid housesitting gig in Sri Lanka and keep a low profile until the drama passes, and the verdict on her case - and career as a surgeon - is decided. Despite everything, she‘s excited to visit the place she used to summer as a child. But what should be a restorative beach break is really a trip back into a murky, haunted past, which has been waiting for her all along. Will she finally wake up to face her troubles? Or is she cursed to sleepwalk through life?
