THE DEAD LETTER SYNOPSIS
It’s night. Always night. Dreams guard against the evil
forged by nightmares. Infinite shooting stars illuminate a moonless sky. A city
stands alone, surrounded by a darkened field. On its fringes, a man watches one
star separate from the masses and fall. What survives the crash will unveil a
secret centuries long hidden.
Molly hasn’t slept well since the night of her twenty-fourth
birthday. Being struck by lightning might have something to do with it, but
then again, her chicken did look a little undercooked at dinner. Whatever the
culprit, her life quickly catapults from mundane to insane as, night after
night, Molly is transported through her once dreamless sleep to a mysterious
land illuminated by shooting stars.
There she meets the captivating but frustrating Dev, and
together they discover Molly possesses a power coveted by his people—the
ability to conjure almost anything she desires into existence. Seduced by the
possibilities of this gift, Molly shifts her attention from waking life toward
the man, the magic, and the world found in her dreams.
But Molly must ask herself—does something truly exist if you
only see it when you close your eyes?
Faced with the threat of losing everything—her job, best
friend, boyfriend, and most importantly, that little thing called her
sanity—Molly will learn just how far she’ll go to uncover what is real and what
is merely a figment of her imagination.
