She is a dreamwalker—a girl capable of entering dreams, sensing emotions, and touching memories that were never meant to be shared.

Their scientists insist Chloe is one of the most significant discoveries they have ever seen.They offer training. Protection. Resources.Nora sees something else.A child being transformed into a resource.A weapon.A target.When federal agents arrive with legal authority to take Chloe into custody, Nora faces an impossible decision: run and spend the rest of their lives hiding, or cooperate and hope the people studying her daughter can still see her as human.Chloe chooses for herself.She wants answers.She wants control over the gift that has shaped her life.And she wants to believe that knowledge can be used to help people instead of hurting them.But the deeper she goes into the government's hidden world, the more disturbing the truth becomes.Other gifted children already exist.Psychic abilities are being tested, measured, and categorized.People are being monitored.Some are being trained.Some are being contained.And somewhere inside a secured facility, Chloe discovers a prisoner whose silent suffering exposes a reality far darker than anyone imagined.When Chloe enters the prisoner's mind, she uncovers evidence of a hidden bomb and prevents a catastrophe that should have killed hundreds.
