The Dreamers

Five inhabitants of a village near London are subjected to the same dream, after one has told it to the other, and the fifth dreamer nearly becomes its victim. The tracking down of its power, its source and its lethal potential is entrusted to a Negro, African Dr. King, and through his handling of the five the evil effects are dispersed and new relationships come into being. NOT before sleeping. --Kirkus Reviews, Jan. 29, 1957
