O knihe
Caleb's mother dies suddenly from brain cancer, While
mourning the loss of his much loved mother he begins
to suffer vivid, terrifying dreams. Worse, when he wakes,
he finds himself scraped, bruised, and bleeding from the
frightening experiences in his dream world. During the
nightmare, Caleb receives a mysterious message that
says he must find Elise Sullivan-Magaskawa, a young
woman in serious trouble who lives in Devils Lake, North
Dakota. Caleb knows he'll be dead if he goes back to
sleep, so he skips his high school final exams. He finds
Elise and learns she's running away from an abusive
stepfather and his psychologist friend who want to keep
her silence by admitting her into a mental institution.
After escaping with Elise, Caleb's dreams ensue, causing
severe burns to Caleb's body while specific directions
to locate and unite with Derrick are received. The
clock is ticking on Caleb's survival, but he's given relief
and the most extraordinary love imaginable from Aubrey.
They're embroiled in a race to locate their
final group member and to attempt to discover the reason
they've been brought together.
Throughout the journeys this unlikely ban of teens with a rape
victim, drug dealer, isolated mama's boy, prom queen and a
schizophrenic must each battle his/her own demons, mentally as well
as physically, which takes every ounce of their special
abilities to overcome. Their religions are challenged,
racial barriers crossed, self-images shattered as they
embark upon alternate perceptions of life and death as
well as alternate energy sources that just might save mankind
and our planet Earth.
