Dream Word Tormented by a past of being bullied, a madman has learned the secrets of dreaming, and he is killing people through his dreams. He lives in a world that everybody visits in their sleep, but few understand like he does. The police department is faced with deaths that nobody can explain. Everybody thinks there must be some logical explanation, something reasonable behind the deaths. Everybody, that is, except Shelly Waterford, a young detective who listens to the witnesses and believes them, no matter how absurd their stories might sound. She seeks the help of the one man who might know something about dreams, a man with a dark past, a man who knows how to enter and control people's dreams. Andrew Shaw has recently been released from a ten year prison sentence. In prison, with a lot of time on his hands, he had taught himself the secrets of dreaming, and it's to him that Shelly turns to teach her about dreaming. She teaches him how to be human again, and how to love. He teaches her everything he knows about the Dream World, and shows her what she will need to track down the killer. But this killer is not beaten that easily. He has a lifetime of dream experience behind him, and his hatred of humanity has driven him over the edge. Enter the dark dream world, a world where few know and understand the rules. In here, you are either one of the strong dreamers, or you are in their power.
