Noel Maher and Amelia Jarvis share a perfect life: jobs they love and a young daughter they adore. But their idyllic lives are about to change forever.
'The Arms of Morpheus' tells the desperate story of two parents as they struggle to come to terms with - and battle against - the most terrifying ordeal imaginable: the impending death of their child. The book examines their coping mechanisms and pits the power of dreams and ancient mythology against the data driven world of science; forcing them to confront painful, suppressed family secrets and, through their differences, work together if they are to save the one thing that is most precious to them.

She succeeded, but at a cost. And now, it appears that the chaos isn't over. Before Lea gets the chance to settle back into a normal life she's jarred back into the world of the godlings.

The youngest, the weaver of surreal visions who could mimic any form of nature, had always been secretly in love with the complicated race. The middle child, the weaver of nightmares who could mimic animals and monsters, carried the guilt why all three were banished and he desired nothing more but to return to his post.
