Description by Author:
Oliver Sangster is no ordinary man. As a
renowned psychic, he deems his ability as a curse, rather than a gift. This
incredible man foresaw catastrophic incidents such as 9/11, Chernobyl, Hurricane
Katrina, the Tokyo gas attack, and many others. His notoriety in contacting the
dead prompts police forces to utilise his skills, but the latest investigation
into a murdered girl has tragic consequences. Professor Ferris-Browne is a
sceptic and member of CSI, an organisation for debunking psychics. His
obsession with denouncing Sangster as a fake leads to the psychic losing his
wife and family, and his income from his shows. This book explores instances of
spooky séances, hauntings, and the possibility that spirits do exist. A
frightening, yet compulsive read!
