    Dreams may hold the secret… but time is running out.

    After the shocking disappearance of her lover Marcus, Donna Locke is running out of time—and out of leads. Desperate to track him down, she enlists the help of the mysterious Dream Team, a group of super-powered individuals who stage elaborate heists to steal vital information from people’s dreams—without their targets ever knowing.

    But uncovering the truth is only the beginning.

    Meanwhile, Marcus’ best friend and police partner, Rico, is spiraling into depression and reckless behavior. When the department assigns him a new partner from out of town, sparks fly as the mismatched duo must navigate supernatural mysteries, personal demons, and dangerous threats while learning to work together.

    Full of heart-pounding suspense, action-packed thrills, high stakes, supernatural twists, and unforgettable characters, The Dream Team is a gripping urban sci-fi thriller for fans of Stranger Things, Miami Vice, fast-paced supernatural mystery thrillers, and light-hearted sci-fi adventure stories with a dark twist. 

    The Magic City Wonders series continues with a thrilling story of dreams, mystery, and the lengths one will go for love, blending the best elements of science fiction, crime drama, and supernatural mystery for a tale that’s thrilling, humorous, and delightful.
