Dr. Cooper Delaney
Posted on November 5, 2022
Our Dr. Cooper Delaney is the very first character introduced in the Percivious Trilogy.
The very first chapter of the first novel of the trilogy, Percivious Insomnia, has him waking up groggy after a fitful night caused by a recurring dream – the contents of which he does not share.
Soon our good doctor, Big Pharma company Proteus’ drug dynamo, is running into a real life nightmare as his new wonder sleep aid, Noctural, runs into a snag. Despite successful preliminary trials, Noctural fails to work for a test subject with chronic insomnia and other people suffering from sleep deprivation and inevitably it falls to Cooper and a handful of invested individuals to figure out why.
Figuring out why is made excessively difficult given that Cooper is “…a perfect stereotype, the alpha male: cocky, with confidence verging on arrogance, looks to match, and just enough sophistication to get laid in NYC.”
But there is far more to the story than initially meets the eye, and soon the mystery behind what is causing the insomnia threatens to rob Cooper, Mandolin Grace (a rising star reporter) and the rest of our diverse cast of characters of not only their sleep, but potentially their lives.
“Yes. Right now, you are wondering why you lost the upper hand in our little exchange, and while it bothers you, you can’t help but respect the fact that it happened. Admit it, you might even like me. At the very least, it is killing you to know why this cup is in pieces on the floor—so I think I will just keep that to myself.” – Percivious Insomnia
Will he figure out what’s causing Noctural to fail? Will his compulsion to compete and desire to win have him left out in the cold? Find out now in Percivious Insomnia.

–Cooper! The love/hate character! I really enjoyed how the characters in this book are neither good or bad. That are very real, humans with flaws and qualities. Definitely one of the strong points in this trilogy. There’s no clean line between good and bad. Each character possesses the ability to turn the story either way. Can’t wait till this amazing trilogy becomes a movie! It absolutely deserves to be on the silver screen!🤞🏼🤞🏼
