When nightmares become real, one girl must face the truth she's been hiding—even from herself.Lily Thornfield arrives at The Liminal Academy claiming she has no supernatural abilities. She just needs a safe boarding school, far from London and the strange occurrences that have plagued her life. But the moment she settles into the East Wing dormitory, terrifying phenomena begin.Cold spots that freeze the air. Whispered voices in the darkness. Shadows that move on their own. And most disturbing of all—shared nightmares of a young girl crying for help, dreams that grip every student in the dormitory night after night.The disturbances seem to center around Lily's room, and soon her fellow students are avoiding her, certain she's somehow responsible. Even Lily begins to fear she's brought something dark to the Academy. But senior student Clara Burton suspects the truth is more complex—and more tragic—than anyone realizes.As Clara investigates with the help of the Academy's most unusual faculty member—Elizabeth Martin, a spirit who has taught at the school for months despite being dead for fifty years—they uncover a Victorian-era tragedy that has haunted these rooms since the 1840s. A young medium named Adelaide was sent to the manor to be "cured" of her gifts, and her suffering left an imprint that has waited decades for someone who could finally hear her story.But Lily isn't powerless. She's a medium with extraordinary abilities—abilities she's been suppressing since childhood out of fear and shame. The nightmares aren't attacking the students. They're Adelaide's spirit crying out through the one person capable of hearing her: Lily herself.To end the hauntings and give Adelaide peace, Lily must accept the truth about her own gifts. And Clara must help her understand that at The Liminal Academy, supernatural abilities aren't afflictions to cure—they're gifts to celebrate.A Gothic mystery with heart, perfect for fans of atmospheric historicals, found family, and stories where acceptance triumphs over fear.Read more
