About
the Book
Sixteen-year-old Nyssa can enter into
people’s dreams. Although the authorities of the medieval town of
Lindenwolde would put her to death if they realized she was a witch, she feels
compelled to practice her unique brand of witchcraft to answer the biggest
question of her life: who broke into her father’s woodworking shop and
killed her parents? Six years after the murder, Nyssa finally gets her chance to
enter the dreams of the man she suspects is responsible. Suddenly she finds
herself on a reckless, relentless journey that leads her through a maze of
adventures—both in the real world and in the world of the unconscious.
Nyssa risks death as she finally identifies the murderer in a shocking and
unexpected climax.
