The dream always started the same...

Psychologist Meredith Morgan understands the how and why of dreams. She understands that dreams are how our subconscious mind tells us things we are too busy to notice.

Meredith awoke...

But dreams are dreams, and when you wake up, the people you meet in your dreams shouldn’t still be with you...

"The sort of psychological terror that makes you question the innocence of your own dreams . . . tantalizing."
