Tuesday Moxley is a teenage girl who aspires to have the same problems other teenage girls have. Every night she dreams of fatal tragedies and horrible accidents that eventually happen in the real world. She lives in terror on a nightly basis, and often witnesses the events of the nightmares in the natural world. She is an outcast among the other kids, the daughter of a drug-addicted mother, and has been to almost every therapist in town to help her solve her problems, but with no success.

But on one cool October morning, Tuesday's fortunes change as she meets a new boy who doesn't look at her the same way the other kids do. It will also be the beginning of a therapy session with a new therapist who may have all of the answers to her problems. But are the solutions he offers her a gift, or a curse?
