Dreams (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781687597519)

DREAMS is a tale that explores societal attitudes toward our young people and our elders, towards how a cross-generational cast of characters interact in ways not often considered. The thriller begins with a tremendous explosion destroying the Pinetree Retirement Village in 2025 Washington, DC. While DC police Sergeant Nick Corcoran and Officer Jo Satterfield track down two suspects, suspicion quickly grows that responsibility for the terrorist act rests with an unseen power much larger and more distant than anyone anticipated. GNN journalist Samantha Holloway dives headfirst into the story only to find connections to other suspicious deaths of older people in the United Kingdom, Malaysia, Singapore and Australia. With the list of now-suspected homicides growing, Sam enlists the help of sophisticated artificial intelligence software, finding a common link connecting the growing number of murders. Working independently of the police departments, the FBI, the UK National Crime Agency, ASIO and Interpol, Holloway goes on a global mission to investigate the evolving conspiracy. Is there any limit to the risk faced by older people reporting serial dreams? Western Australia doctor Leah Ferguson and her friend, psychologist Akiko Nakamura, face the same dilemma, though from a much more personal point of view. Leah's 77-year-old grandpa is Laurie Ferguson, a retired academic who never shies away from sharing his thoughts with his granddaughter. During a weekend barbeque at Leah's Fremantle home, he innocently shares his recent dreams never thinking they might present an imminent threat to his wellbeing. Laurie resists Leah and Akiko's warnings until the terrifying reality of the unseen threat becomes too great to ignore. The story told in DREAMS will relate with every mother, father, son or daughter who has ever worried about a family member. Through it all, DREAMS offers a 'who-done-it' drama that follows across four continents and builds suspense that will keep the reader on edge until the final page.
