Looking for the Sandman

Sociology professor Jill Duncan was living "The Dream." Besides having a fast-track career she was married to a successful psychiatrist Ted and had two beautiful children.
To Jill, the war in Iraq was something she heard news about seemingly everyday yet it seemed to be something far off and unthreatening. Jill's false sense of security comes unraveled quickly when three members of her wedding party from ten years ago succumb to mysterious deaths by unspecified causes in little over six week's time.
Unknown at first to her is that a mysterious rogue figure nicknamed "The Captain" just back from Iraq is the mastermind behind this bloodbath.
The Captain, along with Jimmy Larson, a battle weary underling from the war and a film-making guru has been sending grizzly email attachments with videos to Jill's friends. When viewed the videos trigger time delayed hellish nightmares in the victims causing them to die in their sleep.
Eventually Jill and the remaining living members of her wedding party hatch a plan to have one of their husbands watch the mesmerizing videos but to be awakened midstream. The newest version of the video is peppered with clues that Larson has purposely placed there because he no longer wants to go along with the Captain's murderous scheme.
Armed with these clues, Jill hires a private investigator named Frank Hillary to hunt down her tormentors. Hillary is a highly regarded street smart P.I. who had cracked numerous landmark cases but even he is in for the ride of his life as he ponders whether he is the hunter or the hunted.
This is a story which shows that not all the casualties of war are found on the battlefield.
