Full Description
They took her sleep.
They took her dreams.
Her body says they took something else.
Victoria once lived in awe of her dreams—analysing them, interpreting their meaning, finding wonder in the subconscious. Now, she’ll never dream again.
After waking from forced sedation in a psychiatric facility, Victoria’s world shifts to a dystopian nightmare. Her body is altered. Her mind is perpetually alert. A fresh surgical scar hints at a procedure no one will confirm.
Nuvo Tech, the global pharmaceutical leader behind Dostal—a drug that eliminates sleep in exchange for endless consciousness and productivity—has redefined what it means to be human. But beneath its glossy promises lies a darker agenda, and Victoria may be the key to uncovering it.
