Janie má iba sedemnásť, ale skutočnosť pre ňu začína byť horšia než sny. Na Fieldridgeskej strednej škole sa deje čosi znepokojivé, ale nikto o tom nechce hovoriť nahlas a ani vyšetrovanie nikam nevedie. Čo je však ešte horšie, Janie začína odhaľovať pravdu o sebe a o svojich schopnostiach– a tá je pochmúrna. Kruto pochmúrna...

Cryer's Cross je mestečko, kde sa takmer nič nedeje... až do chvíle, keď bez stopy zmizne jedna študentka miestnej školy. Kendall Fletcherová sa s ňou príliš nepoznala, ale keď zmizne aj jej najlepší kamarát Nico a Kendall začne počuť hlasy zmiznutých študentov, má strach, či náhodou nezošalela. Rozhodne sa preto prísť celej záhade na kĺb. V mestečku Cryer's Cross sa deje niečo neprirodzené a Kendall musí odhaliť dlho skrývané tajomstvá jeho obyvateľov...

Janie si myslela, že vie, čo ju v budúcnosti čaká. A myslela si, že sa s tým zmierila. Ale neznesie pomyslenie, že sťahuje Cabela so sebou. Vie, že Cabel s ňou zostane, napriek tomu, čo vidí v jeho snoch. Napadne ju jediný spôsob ako mu dopriať život, ktorý si zaslúži - musí zmiznúť. Budúcnosť, pred ktorou Janie stojí, má zrazu zlovestný háčik a jej možnosti sú ešte chmúrnejšie než si kedy vedela predstaviť. Úplne sama si musí vybrať medzi dvoma zlami. A jej čas sa blíži...

Temné sny prichádzajú! Sedemnásťročná Janie sa noc čo noc dostáva do cudzích snov, ktoré odhaľujú odvrátenú stránku ľudského života. Janie sa nemôže nikomu zdôveriť - neuverili by jej a mysleli by si, že sa zbláznila. A tak žije so svojou schopnosťou ako s prekliatím, ktoré nedokáže ovládať. Raz sa Janie prepadne do nočnej mory, z ktorej jej stuhne krv v žilách - prvý raz nezostáva v niečej zvrátenej duši len pozorovateľkou, ale stáva sa aj účastníčkou...
