In the near future of Beijing, a mysterious "liminal space" has quietly arrived - certain groups of people fall into shared dreams during deep sleep, reality and illusion intertwine, serial "bliss murders" occur frequently, and the dead all die with a smile on their face. Lin Shen, a former neurological researcher, acquired the ability to "dream synchronize" due to an accident, but was accused of being a murderer; Su Yuwei, a detective from the special case team, suffered from a rare "dreamlessness" and was forced to investigate this supernatural crime. The "Qianyuan" clinic of retired psychoanalyst Chen Mo hides secrets, and the mysterious dream weaver can reshape dream reality, and his motives are a mystery.
When Lin Shen was forced to get involved in other people's dreams, Su Yuwei's dreamless brain became the key. During the investigation, the two discovered the black market in dreams, threshold laws and transnational conspiracies. As reality is gradually eroded by dreams, they must face the crisis of memory tampering and identity collapse. What is the origin of liminal space? Why does the Dream Weaver search for the "perfect container"? Will the boundary between dreams and reality eventually dissolve?
This is a thrilling journey about memory, identity and free will, exploring the truth of the abyss of consciousness in the unknown fear of Cthulhu and the cold technology of cyberpunk.
