The bond between the students of Wickwood Academy: Thomas and the twins Andrew and Dove has always defied definitions, and after the holidays everything becomes more complicated. Dove distances herself from her brother, and Andrew escapes into dark fairy tales written exclusively for Thomas - the boy with hands forever stained with ink, who sketches terrifying monsters. Meanwhile, Thomas' parents disappear, and he returns to school with blood on his sleeve and abandons his obsessive sketches.

When Andrew follows him and enters the forbidden forest, he discovers that the monsters from the drawings come to life. From that moment on, both fight nightmares at night, and the line between waking and sleeping blurs. The monsters grow stronger - as does the bond between the boys. Unfortunately, Andrew senses that in order to end this nightmare, he will have to face not only the beasts, but also Thomas, without whom he cannot imagine life...
