How was it possible that such a magnificent creation as a child could slip through the cracks of a modern society time and again, until there was no clear sign pointing to the place he came from? How was it possible there could be no one to care enough to watch over him along the way, no one to come after him when he was lost, to protect him from whatever it was that brought him to my doorstep? These questions have weighed on Dean Evelyn Hartin in the fourteen years since she adopted her son Eric off the streets. Now Eric lies in a near-comatose state, and the answers continue to elude her. Eric is searching for his past, too; in his hospital room, he is dreaming-and those dreams are manifesting in strange and tangible ways in the lives of all who know him. What secrets are locked in Eric Hartin's mind? What happens when those secrets start changing the world?
