Loyola Chin, une jeune sino-américaine de quinze ans découvre qu'elle peut visiter d'autres univers tout en dormant. Une nuit, elle rencontre un mystérieux personnage, Saint Danger dont elle tombe amoureuse. Elle se réfugie dans ce monde sectaire tandis que Gordon, un élève de sa classe un peu bête essaye de sortir avec elle...

Loyola discovers that she can control her dreams based on what she eats before bed. After consuming some ordinary cornbread she meets a man called Saint Danger on a mountaintop, who shares with her a terrible vision of the future, and his even more horrific plan to prevent it. The story is somber and serious at times, for instance, Loyola has struggled with the loss of her Catholic faith following the death of her mother, but also includes more lighthearted elements, like Gordon, an awkward boy with a crush on Loyola who wants to take her to the prom.

The fantasy elements of the story are strange and inventive: the San Peilgran Order is a secret society that stores information in the unused parts of certain people's brains, and can communicate with their hosts when television cables inserted in the nose. The art style is fairly simple but effective; the characters' faces are expressive and often the story moves along without dialogue. The depiction of the San Peligran Order's headquarters is of an odd futuristic hideout, complete with robots and flying DNA scanners and the comic medium works very well to convey the fantasy of the story. Overall this is an intriguing work that combines science fiction, questions of religious faith, and the difficulties of navigating high school in one exciting story that high school age teens will enjoy.
