It’s only when she starts leaving him clues for how to find her in the real world that Oliver’s sense of fantasy and reality begin to blur into something strange and new. The journey that follows takes Oliver everywhere he can imagine and beyond; across the country to a city he doesn’t know, to things from his terrible past he would rather forget; over concrete and bluebells and snow and ice; all leading him to the truth that love can exist in dreams.
