About This Book

Preble Jefferson can see five seconds into the future, and otherwise lives an ordinary life. When a confrontation with a police officer on the New York subway goes wrong, those five seconds let him dodge a bullet - and another man dies in his place. As government agencies learn what he can do and the hunt for him begins, Preble has to protect his family and weigh what his gift is costing him.
