Her nightmares aren't dreams—they're memories of how she died.
What if your nightmares were memories?
Seventeen-year-old Joan Portman has spent years haunted by vivid dreams of death. Doctors call them nightmares. Her parents call them stress.
They're both wrong.
When Joan discovers her dreams are actually memories of lives she once lived, she is pulled across centuries into the final moments of a Roman gladiator, a girl trapped in Nazi-occupied Europe, and Joan of Arc herself.
As the line between past and present begins to unravel, Joan must uncover why every life she remembers ends the same way:
In sacrifice.
