Return to Maren

The exiles escaped from Burgus—the most notorious prison in America—and fled to the safety of Fortune's Fall. But Nyssa Ardelone stayed behind with the hopes that she can convince the president that the exiles mean him no harm—despite his prophetic dreams that have convinced him otherwise. With a fake dream implanted into his dream recorder, Nyssa's confident she can make him believe that his survival is conditional on the exiles' safe return to Maren. But the task proves harder than she anticipated when she discovers the dream has sound in it, something that's never happened in any previous prophetic dream. Suspicious, the president becomes more unpredictable than ever before, and if Nyssa can't figure out why the dream has sound, reuniting with her family and friends in Maren might prove impossible. 

With the help of an unexpected friend, Nyssa uncovers the truth behind the sound as well as long-buried secrets about the president's past, a past that the president will do anything to keep hidden, including the total annihilation of the exiles. To protect the exiles and ensure their safe return to Maren, Nyssa will confront the president one final time, and its outcome will either give her everything she ever wanted, or destroy everyone she loves.
