WHEN DREAMS REMEMBER
Adopted in infancy, Hannah Glass’s childhood on Long Island was idyllic. Panic began taking hold of her when, at age 14, she witnessed on television the 9/11 terrorist attack on the Twin Towers. Later, as a young woman, she watched as her fiancé, David, was struck and killed by a bus on a Manhattan street. Only in the aftermath of her grief did Hannah begin to think about her origins. Now an accomplished journalist, Hannah decides to investigate her past and learn about her birth mother.
Serendipitously, Hannah receives a plum assignment from a national magazine to interview trauma expert Dr. Jo Brightman. More than a celebrity profile, Hannah sees the gig as an opportunity to understand her lifelong struggles with terror. Could the emotional effects of ancestral, social, and cultural trauma be inherited?

More of the answers Hannah seeks lie in the contents of a mysterious vintage chest shipped by Levi to Hannah’s parents’ home. Still more is revealed when she travels to London to meet Zach and Graham, as the journey morphs from one of investigating the past to exploring love.
