Dreams

The gripping third book in Sue Farwick's The Connections Series.

Some secrets refuse to stay buried-and some nightmares are entirely too real.

Julie Wright has spent her life carrying a terrifying, silent burden. Ever since her school days in a quiet Cumbrian village in England, her sleep has been haunted by vivid, prophetic premonitions of death. Carrying intense guilt over tragedies she couldn't prevent, Julie channels her instinct for solving crimes into a brilliant law enforcement career that takes her all the way to Detective Inspector.

But logic and forensic science can only protect her for so long.

When a suspicious car crash in the freezing snow outside Penhampton reveals a hidden stiletto wound directly to the victim's heart, Julie's professional world collides violently with a haunting past. The murdered woman is Lucy Welbourne-the fragile soul whose reality unraveled in The Eternal Song (Book 1 in The Connections Series). Soon after, an outbreak of violence at the grand Stoughton Manor unearths the bitter, multi-generational trauma of the Foxworth family, whose dark secrets began in Smoke (Book 2 in The Connections Series).

Alongside her methodical partner, D.S. Peter Parry, Julie is drawn into a chilling web of past-life regression, hypnosis, and historical crimes. From an enigmatic, dying old medium in London to a secluded countryside estate guarded by hunting hounds, every lead reveals that the same insidious presence has been pulling the strings across generations.

As a relentless winter storm cuts Beckham off from the outside world, Julie realizes the predator isn't just fleeing the law-he is hunting her. To break the cycle of fate, she must confront her deepest vulnerabilities and face the ultimate, inescapable premonition: her own death.

Dreams is Book 3 in The Connections Series. It cleverly weaves the beloved characters and mysteries of The Eternal Song and Smoke into an atmospheric police procedural with a haunting paranormal edge.
