With her present-day life in upheaval, the last thing archaeologist Zoey Kincaid needs is a 25-year-old letter delivering a message of doom. But that's exactly what she gets upon retrieving the contents of a long-locked safe deposit box.The letter, from Zoey's deceased mother, describes Zoey's impending murder on the banks of the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia. Apparently, her mother had belonged to a select group of foretellers-people affected by tainted water who could see beyond normal timelines.Zoey then learns of her mother's rape long ago, putting the identity of her real father into question. Zoey's DNA may be the only link to convicting the recently identified criminal.Things go from bad to worse: Zoey's fiancé starts to behave irrationally; the rapist learns of her existence; a former stalker, now a powerful corporate titan, resurfaces in her life. The more secrets she unearths, the more the foretelling gains credibility.Forced to dust the cobwebs from her own shadowy past, Zoey uncovers crimes, deception and buried family secrets. With suspects in every direction, she is forced to believe in the mother she barely knew to save her life. But will she put it all together in time to ensure a future?
