Davina, a fiercely independent and determined cop, begins experiencing a series of insignificant yet strangely recurring dreams. These fragments of imagery-flickering lights, scattered coins, a child's laughter-seem mundane at first glance but leave her with an unshakable sense of unease.

Her routine is disrupted when she's assigned to investigate a high profile rape case. Tristan, an enigmatic man with a dark past, is brought in as the prime suspect. His calm demeanor and cryptic words unsettle Davina, but she can't deny the strange connection between him and the images haunting her dreams.

As Davina interrogates Tristan, he reveals an uncanny ability to interpret her dreams, claiming they hold the key to an unseen truth. Skeptical yet intrigued, she delves deeper into his interpretations, unraveling layers of her subconscious-and the case. What she uncovers is a chilling web of manipulation, past sins hidden trauma, and a conspiracy reaching far beyond her imagination.
