First Time In Paperback
SummaryA red scarf. A roller coaster. A tidal wave of blood...
Isabel Wright spends her days at the Belvedere Center for
Sleep Research analyzing the dreams of others. Dr. Martin
Belvedere, a pioneer in the field, recognized her unique
talent for what he calls Level Five lucid dreaming. It's
satisfying, lucrative work, but it can be emotionally
draining. Especially when one of her anonymous subjects,
known only as Client Number Two, captures her imagination
through his compelling dream narratives. Secretly, she
thinks of him as "Dream Man."
His real name is Ellis Cutler. A loner who's learned not to
let anyone get too close, he works for a highly classified
government agency with an interest in the potential value of
lucid dreaming. And he's just been ordered by his boss to
make contact with Isabel, who's been fired after the sudden
death of Dr. Belvedere. Heading to California, he pushes
his fantasies out of his mind, determined to maintain a
professional relationship with the woman who reads his
dreams, the mysterious figure he has come to think of as
"Tango Dancer."
But when they meet in the flesh, the dream becomes real
enough to touch. And a waking nightmare beginswhen a
suspicious hit-and-run leads them into a perilous web of
passion, betrayal, and murder, and forces them to walk the
razor-thin line between dreams and reality.
