Left behind by his mother at the age of five, Jason clung to the golden dream catcher she left him. It was more than just a keepsake-it was his refuge. But when his previous roommate breaks it, Jason's peaceful nights become plagued with restless sleep and eerieness.
When Axel, his mysterious new roommate, arrives, Jason is drawn into a world he never imagined. Axel doesn't sleep and instead vanishes every night and come morning is back in their dorm looking a bit worse for wear.
One night, Jason follows him and stumbles upon a chilling secret: Axel is stealing nightmares with a strange black lens.
Soon, Jason discovers his golden dream catcher is no ordinary trinket-it's a lens of its own, and it holds the key to unraveling the mystery of his mother's disappearance.

As Jay learns to control the nightmares within her she is soon faced with opponents outside her own mind including Harvey's brother Edmund, whose affection for Jay seems too good to be true, the mother who abandoned her as a child, and an entire court of mara who would see her executed for her merely existing.
