Some nightmares fade with the morning light.

          Some follow you into it.

Selene has always known when she’s dreaming — a lucid dreamer in full control. But when a routine night shift at the Lantern Hotel takes a sinister turn, something ancient slips through. Her dreams begin to twist, bleed, follow. Shadows stalk her long after she wakes — and this time, she’s not sure she can escape.

Tariq “Tee” is a Nightmare Knight — one of the few trained to walk the thin line between dreams and waking, hunting the things that prey on the minds of the unconscious. But even he has never encountered a mind like Selene’s. She doesn’t just draw the Darkness… she awakens something it’s been waiting for.

As reality begins to fracture, Selene is forced to question everything she thought she knew — about dreams, about herself, and about what’s really lurking in the dark.

Her mind may not just be the battleground.
It might be the key.
