After her husband is killed by a drunk driver, Kelly Harris and her son TJ move into a sprawling Victorian house in Ohio that her husband inherited from his grandmother. Dealing with her overwhelming grief is a struggle as she adjusts to life in a small town. And, just as she's beginning to feel more comfortable, life takes another unexpected turn. The Alexa unit in her son's bedroom starts to cry, and a little girl's voice comes out of it asking for help. At first Kelly is unnerved by the presence of the voice. After ruling out all the other likely possibilities, she begins to put the pieces together, and suspects the child is a ghost. Unwilling to be uprooted from another home, she decides to find out what the child wants. Maybe she can help. Kelly isn't the only one interested in the voice. Detective Rob Porter is investigating the disappearance of a child named Marilee. As the two cross paths, Porter is taken aback when Kelly's ghost mentions Marilee's name. In fact, the ghost says "Marilee's with me." Whether that means the child is a ghost as well is a question Rob and Kelly hope to answer.

Johanne and Knud lived close to the town of Kjöge, where there are many gardens that extend as far as the river. There is not much else, but it is charming in summer! It was under the willow-tree in one of these gardens that Johanne and Knud spent a great deal of their time and theirs was a beautiful friendship. But everything would change when Johanne had to leave for Copenhagen with her father! Would they remain friends? Or even, as Knud hoped, could they become more than friends? Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) was a Danish author, poet and artist. Celebrated for children’s literature, his most cherished fairy tales include "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Nightingale", "The Steadfast Tin Soldier", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Match Girl". His books have been translated into every living language, and today there is no child or adult that has not met Andersen's whimsical characters. His fairy tales have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with the animated films "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 and "Frozen", which is loosely based on "The Snow Queen", in 2013. Thanks to Andersen's contribution to children's literature, his birth date, April 2, is celebrated as International Children's Book Day.

Jessie started dream-jumping when she was only 10 years old, the night tragedy struck and all she wanted to do was escape her world. For as long as Jessie can remember she has been able to tune into other people's emotions. and experience how others are feeling. Jessie can read it in their faces and when she gets a chance, she can deepen the connection by looking into their eyes. I have to tell you a secret though, not all dreams are welcoming, some are nightmares and others? Well, I don't even want to think about. At the age of 19 tragedy strikes, in the form of her best-friend Mikey Jay, and Jessie's life gets turned upside down. In order for Jessie to become who she is meant to be she needs to face the memories, she has tried for most of her preteen to teen years to run away from. The problem with running from your past is your past always catches up to you, no matter how fast you try to run from it. The Shadows of the In-Between, a world between worlds, attempt to trap Jessie in her own nightmares just as they did to Mikey Jay. In order to escape and save her best friend, Jessie must trust in herself and in Otis, a dream-jumper she met at school, who is trying to help her along the way. Little does Jessie know a dream-jumper named Sayer has brought all these new friends into Jessie's life to allow her to rescue him from the In-Between where he has been trapped for years. It was just pure coincidence that Mikey Jay dropped into his dream world and happened to be the key factor in Sayer's plan of getting Jessie ready to become the dream-jumper she is meant to be.
