Here, Paige is immersed in a dream reality called 'the Journey'. If patients finish the Journey, then they can go home.

The Journey is meant to be a cure - but Paige soon discovers dark forces within the hospital, and that the dream reality is the stuff of nightmares. Paige and her friends have limited chances to show progress, before it's too late.

Can they escape the ward? And can Paige find reasons to live?
