A boy is blessed with second sight—and cursed by what he sees—in this terrifying thriller from the bestselling author of The Devil's Advocate. A little knowledge can be a deadly thing. Everyone knows that David is a smart one. He can tell you the end of a story from the first sentence. The other kids won't even go to the movies with him anymore; he always spoils the ending. People begin to wonder about David. There is, after all, such a thing as being too smart for your own good. David has learned the hard way to keep his thoughts to himself. But now David is growing up, and his gift is turning into a power. The power to read people's minds. To see the future. To know things—terrifying things—that he didn't want to know. Like who would live. And who would die . . .
