A novel about one woman’s fight for freedom, set in a near future where even dreams are under surveillance.

Using data from her dreams, the Risk Assessment Administration's algorithm has determined that Sara is at imminent risk of harming the person she loves most: her husband.

For his safety, she must be kept under observation for twenty-one days.

The agents transfer Sara to a retention center, where she is held with other dreamers, all of them women trying to prove their innocence from different crimes.

With every deviation from the strict and ever-shifting rules of the facility, their stay is extended ; months pass and Sara seems no closer to release.

Eerie, urgent, and ceaselessly clear-eyed, "The Dream Hotel" artfully explores the seductive nature of technology, which puts us in shackles even as it makes our lives easier.
