"The doomed jet finally rolled out and took off. My thoughts were a
dark swamp of regret, rage, and helplessness. The lobby's bright
overhead fluorescents kicked on and I studied my face in the window
against a darkening sky. The rain finally arrived and rivulets ran
down the outside, merging with my reflection as though tears ran
down my cheeks. The false image mirrored my inner state with brutal
accuracy. That would come later, I knew, as I talked to the silent
sword, my only companion, and asked once more, "Why?"" Ninety-two
years stretch behind Sebastian Bach-a long life spent seeking
freedom from his inability to age, premonitions of death that
compel him to intervene in the lives of strangers, and his abject
failure to save anyone. As the years have passed, so have his
family and friends, leaving him utterly alone, but for a mysterious
sword passed down through his family and given to him on his
thirteenth birthday. His world suddenly changes when he foresees
the crashing of a transatlantic flight-by far the greatest loss of
life he's ever tried to avert. In desperation, Sebastian boards the
plane...and sets off a chain of events that will catapult him into
the past to experience previous lifetimes: one as Hector, mighty
heir to the throne of the fallen Troy...and the other as Roland,
hero of the court of Charlemagne. With the help of Erin Montgomery,
a beautiful young woman who shares a link to his mysterious
past-and the ancient enchantment of the sword known as
Durandel-Sebastian learns how a deadly ambush in the Pyrennes in
778 A.D. altered his soul's destiny...but can the past be changed
to save his future? The latest masterwork by Anne Eldridge, author
of Alice & Henry: A Novel, Precognition is a sweeping, epic
paranormal journey into a realm beyond the boundaries of time and
mortality-where one man's destiny reaches across three spectacular
lifetimes...and the past comes alive. Precognition is
Fantasy-Adventure-redefined.
