When dreams can be watched like films, sleep is no longer an escape. Because if dreams can be seen, they can be judged.
Meredith is a dreamer.
By day, she survives on routine - caring for her fragile mother, enduring her abrasive aunt. But at night, she lives. In her dreams, she feels everything more vividly: beauty, freedom, even terror. They are the only place she is truly herself.
Then DreamSphere technology sweeps the nation, and dream screens begin appearing outside every home. Private thoughts become public spectacle, and the Department of Dream Surveillance begins policing the unconscious as criminal behaviour. Meredith is forced to confront a terrifying reality: the one place she feels free may soon be monitored, interpreted, and punished.
As the DDS hunts so-called dream-crime, turning neighbour against neighbour and friend against friend, Meredith searches for a way to stop dreaming altogether - and discovers she is not alone.
In a society where you can be prosecuted for the acts you commit while asleep, even dreaming is dangerous.
