 Dr. Alex Delaware doesn’t see many private patients anymore, but the  young woman called Lucy is an exception. So is her dream. Lucy Lowell is  referred to Alex by Los Angeles police detective Milo Sturgis. A juror  at the agonizing trial of a serial killer, Lucy survived the trauma only  to be tormented by a recurring nightmare: a young child in the forest  at night, watching a strange and furtive act.
  
 “Exciting . . . loaded with tension and packed with titillating insights.”—The New York Times Book Review
  
 Now Lucy’s dream is starting to disrupt her waking life, and Alex is  concerned. The power of the dream, its grip on Lucy’s emotions, suggests  to him that it may be more than a nightmare. It may be the repressed  childhood memory of something very real. Something like murder.
