Publisher's Synopsis
We all have nightmares and when the often-terrifying moments pass into the light of our waking world we find comfort in the knowledge that dreams can't really hurt anyone. Or can they? For young Ashley Dolan and the small Massachusetts community of Marston her family called home, this belief is shattered one cold January night. After waking from a nightmare she finds her family gone without a trace and as local and state police search frantically for the missing family members, a frightening trend develops. Each night someone else vanishes with the only link the young girl and the now regular nightmares she suffers from--nightmares that spawn a wolf-like creature from a dark place within her.As the nightmares of the sixteen-year-old girl are transformed into a nightmare walking in the waking world, a small community must first believe before they can find an answer and must do so in time to stop the nightmare of today but also those that will come again in the future.
