Dream Thieves: You Invaded My Mind

Bag om Dream Thieves: You Invaded My Mind

Dream Thieves The plot revolves around the discovery of a hallucinogenic mind-altering drug that is later called Delirium. Extracted from the root of an Amazonian plant Delirium allows two people, who have ingested it, to share the same dream. In that dream the two share a common reality, a fifth dimension, and what they do in this dream state echoes in the real world. The story begins with an anthropological expedition to the Amazon Basin to study a tribe of Indians who have had no contact with the twenty first century. The expedition soon goes horribly wrong when they are captured by the very Indians they wanted to study. During their brief captivity a Shaman forces the female anthropologist to eat a piece of tree root and though she is constantly observed throughout the night in the morning she claims that she has been raped. When the main character Costas Romero becomes a victim of this drug, he is able to escape into the rainforest. Eventually Costas reaches safety and in Tefè is taken in by a doctor and his wife. In Tefè Costas meets up with a lifelong friend and a female research pharmacologist, Ruth Anderson. Ruth is intrigued by Costas' story and offers to analyse a piece of the tree root from which the drug is extracted. Ruth sends a sample of the root to her brother Lee, a research biomolecular scientist in the U.K. Following the illicit analysis of the drug Lee Anderson prepares a number of pure samples of the drug he calls Delirium. Once the properties of the drug are known it is abused by Lee and others that use it to rape a number of defenceless women. Soon after two revenge attacks on Lee's ex-girlfriend, she and her new boyfriend are brutally murdered. Dream Thieves is a story of mystery and intrigue interspersed with both love and betrayal. As revenge plunges one of the main characters towards self-destruction, will the love he shares with another be enough to save him? A sub plot of lust and cruelty bubbles just below the surface whilst a sadistic killer weaves a web of deceit in order to ensnare the innocent. Will justice finally descend upon the guilty?
