A thrilling debut. The boundary between sleep and the waking world is beginning to dissolve, forcing one audacious dreamer to face a reality more dangerous than any nightmare.

'Atmospheric, dangerous and fast-paced,' Jasbinder Bilan

For sixteen-year-old Ashlyn Threadneedle, life is split in two. During the day, she serves as a government messenger for Lord Whitaker, but when darkness falls, she escapes into the Stream ' a vivid dreamworld where time bends and imagination is the only limit.

When her long-dead mother suddenly appears in a dream, hidden secrets of the Stream unravel, upending Ashlyn's life and jeopardising the safety of those she loves. To save the mind's independence, Ashlyn must unlock her family's mysteries and the dreamworld itself. But the Stream is a dangerous place, and protecting the very freedom of thought will require risking both her past and her future.
