The Moth Dreamer cover

Haunted by a tragic vision she failed to prevent, sixteen-year-old Aubrey struggles to navigate the heavy burden of guilt and sorrow following her cousin's passing.

Sixteen-year-old Aubrey is horrified when a vision about her cousin's death comes true. Overcome with grief, Aubrey begins to see more troubling visions about the futures of those around her.

The Moth Dreamer is a chilling young adult supernatural tale where Anishinaabe cultural traditions, psychological suspense, and ancient entities collide.

Sixteen-year-old Aubrey is consumed by overwhelming shock and guilt when a terrifying premonition of her cousin’s death becomes reality. But the nightmare is only beginning. In the wake of her devastating loss, a disturbing supernatural ability awakens, leaving Aubrey stranded between worlds and plagued by unsettling, involuntary visions.

Desperate for grounding, Aubrey turns to her Kokum, a medicine woman. Through the deep-rooted traditions and sacred practices of her Indigenous culture, she begins searching for answers. But the spiritual realm is restless. A cryptic Trickster invades her dreams with urgent messages, while a dark, ancient entity that feeds on human suffering begins stalking her from the shadows.

When this malevolent creature threatens to cross into the physical world, Aubrey must confront her deepest grief. To protect her family before the darkness consumes her, she will have to bridge the thin veil between reality and spirituality.

The Moth Dreamer is perfect for fans of Indigenous horror, dark coming-of-age young adult novels, and atmospheric supernatural thrillers.

Farrell combines Anishinaabe traditions and language throughout, engaging readers with Indigenous culture and spiritual practices. Purchase this for larger YA collections.
