Seven years ago, Lin Zhao, the wife of a criminal police officer, disappeared during the investigation of a series of murders in Gaoqi, leaving behind a three-year-old daughter and a fragmented memory. Seven years later, 31-year-old criminal psychology professor Gu Yanan, with the scars left by that disaster, became a non-staff consultant of the city's criminal investigation detachment.
He has an ability that ordinary people cannot understand - falling into dreams. Every time you touch a victim in a case, you will be dragged into the dream world of the deceased, and you can immerse yourself in the last frightening moments before death. Every detail in the dream may be a key clue to solving the case, but every time I fall into a dream, it is like tearing open the deepest scar in my soul.
As a series of bizarre cases were solved, Gu Yanan gradually discovered that the murderer who took his wife away was still lurking in the shadows of the city, and was even more cunning than he was seven years ago. And an even more shocking truth is emerging - the disappearance of his wife Lin Zhao seems to be inextricably linked to his three university tutors.
When dreams and reality intersect, when the murder and the truth are misaligned, when you have god-like abilities but find that you cannot save the most important person - all the evidence points to the same direction, but at the final moment everything goes wrong.
This time, he must find the only truth between the abyss of memory and the edge of death.
