sleeper's
Resting person's possession
Sleeper's is the possessive form of sleeper—someone or something that sleeps.
A sleeper's breathing slows during rest.
The word also applies to things that remain dormant or unnoticed until activated: a sleeper agent's cover, a sleeper hit's unexpected success.
In construction, a sleeper is a horizontal beam; in transport, a sleeping car or its berth.
