In the near-future SF novel Tower of Dreams, Blaine Ramsey is an Image digger. He can tap the collective unconscious of a people in his dreams, uncovering "Images"--potent archetypes--for the international advertising industry to exploit. Because he is part-Arab, Blaine works and lives in a Middle Eastern village, where he dreams of a beautiful woman's violent fate. As the nightmare recurs, Blaine discovers, against all the laws of neuropsychology and reason, that his dream woman, an Image, is real--a famous Egyptian actress called Aida. He travels to restless, earthquake-shaken Cairo, seeking to escape the nightmare by resolving the mystery, only to find he may be trapped in a disaster more terrible than anything even an Image digger can imagine.
