What it’s about. Cassie has no problem falling asleep -- it's staying awake that's the hard part, because she's narcoleptic. Fortunately for Cassie, she works in a lab that has just created a serum to treat this disruptive condition. However, when subjects in the trial for this new drug start dropping dead, she uncovers a conspiracy that sends her on a dangerous pursuit of the truth. Will she fall asleep on the job? Let's hope not -- she's got a lot of bullets (and sleep-deprived hallucinations) to dodge along her road to justice.
Who’s in it. Wide Awake stars Missy Peregrym as Cassie Wade, Scott Wickware as Detective Logan, Joseph Di Mambro as Detective Charlie Andrews and Anthony Lemke as Robert Turner.
