A love story. A dream you can’t wake from… Jonathan Abernathy is a loser. Unemployed and behind on his student loan repayments, the only thing Abernathy has in abundance is debt. When a secretive government loan forgiveness programme offers him a job he can literally do in his sleep, Abernathy thinks he’s found his big break. He finds himself entering the dreams of white-collar workers to audit them – flagging their anxieties for removal at night so they'll be more productive in the day.
