Sweet Dreams is a 2008 thriller novel from Aaron Patterson.Protagonist Mark Appleton is living the idyllic life; he has a decent job, a caring wife and a beautiful daughter. However, Mark loses everything to an "accident", killing his wife and child. Eventually Mark decides to find out what happens, and discovers that it was no accident...The second subplot is about Kirk Weston, a cynical cop with little respect for authority; he is part of a team investigating a massacre at a prison. However, Kirk is soon faced with far more trouble than that...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Not to be confused with the 1983 album/song by Eurythmics, or the 1985 biopic film about Patsy Cline.

The Guards Must Be Crazy: The guards transporting Kirk come up with the plan of cutting his hand restraints before moving him. What did they even expect that would do?

Anti-Hero: Kirk, and the WJA as a whole. They have killed many terrorists and murderers, yet are extremely self-righteous and are willing to keep innocent people in inhumane conditions.

Contrived Coincidence: Geoff just so happens to be in the right place at the right time to help Kirk. When it's revealed that he's actually Tripp Maddock, and that he's a hitman, it becomes even more contrived and unlikely. How did he know where Kirk would be?

All Just a Dream: Actually played STRAIGHT. It turns out that the vast majority of Mark's story was all a dream and that his wife and child are perfectly fine. It's as insulting as it sounds.
