The Probable Future, Paperback / softback Book

The Probable Future Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

When the women in the Sparrow family reach thirteen, they develop a unique ability.

In young Stella's case, the gift, which is both a blessing and a curse, is the ability to see a person's probable future.

Stella foresees a gruesome murder, and tells her charming, feckless father about it, but it is too late - the murder has already been committed and suspicion falls on him.

Hoffman unlocks the caskets of family life and the secret history of a community in this magical story about young love and old love, about making choices - usually the wrong ones - about foresight and consequences, all suffused with the haunting scent of roses and wisteria, and the hum of bees on a summer evening.
