Dan is a clever student who desperately wants to get out of debt. Professor Nestor is a mysterious scholarly hermit who lives in a spacious house where his laboratory is hidden. Together, they discover a way to enter the fabric of dreams and pull out strange artifacts, unusual creatures, and even people who have vanished without a trace. That’s how the “Dream Bureau” is born.
But what’s extracted from a dream doesn’t always behave in reality the way it does in the world of dreams—and visitors to the bureau often don’t even realize what grim secrets their subconscious hides deep within. The professor and his young assistant will have to risk everything by going into someone else’s dreams, and without reliable friends in these dangerous forays they won’t make it.
