When talented concert pianist Caleb Montgomery returns to his hometown of Chicago for a concert series, his life is upended by a vibrant, beautiful cellist named Rylen. Faced with confronting his physical and emotional demons or allowing the woman of his dreams into his heart, Caleb struggles with the value of life and the sentence of death. At Caleb's side is his brother, Dominic, whose own life is spiraling quickly out of control. As the brothers seek their hearts' desires, Caleb's mind is set abuzz with faraway voices, and Dominic's fight to keep his family intact takes a tragic turn. Seeking peace but met only with unspeakable anguish, each must face daunting decisions that will shape the future. "Sleep Sweet" addresses the heart-wrenching effects of disease and death as it interweaves the stories of a man succumbing to the horrors of illness and the brother who fights to keep him alive. Even as they struggle to survive, their lives are changed by the women strong enough to break down barriers and win their hearts. The result is a moving eulogy-a story of love and grief that strikes at the heart of the human condition.
