The Dream Hotel

Sara is returning home from a conference abroad when agents from the Risk Assessment Administration pull her aside at the airport. Using data from her dreams, their algorithm has determined that she is at imminent risk of harming her husband. For his safety, she must be transferred to a retention center, and kept under observation for twenty-one days.
But as Sara arrives to be monitored alongside other dangerous dreamers, she discovers that with every deviation from the facility's strict and ever-shifting rules, their stay can be extended - and that getting home to her family is going to cost much more than just three weeks of good behaviour.
A gripping tale about the technology that puts us in shackles even as it promises to make our lives easier, The Dream Hotel asks: how much must we keep private if we are to remain free? And can even the most invasive forms of surveillance ever capture who we really are?
