Lew Nichols can predict the future. Not see the future, just make predictions based on research and statistics. Nichols is damn good at it, though, and his accuracy makes him a valuable addition to Paul Quinnβs political campaign for New York City Mayor and possibly the White House.
But, when Nichols meets eccentric millionaire Martin Carvajal, predictions suddenly seem petty and flippant. You see, Carvajal can actually see the futureβnot trends, not optionsβa signal line of events stretching out ahead. Itβs a gift Nichols can learn from this βmentor,β but at what price? Will knowing the future make the present meaningless?
