Description

When Tilly's seemingly perfect life starts changing around her, she must decide which is the life she wants - the one she's carefully tended for decades or the one she never considered possible. Tilly Farmer is thirty-two years old and has the life she always dreamed of - married to her high school sweetheart, working as a guidance counselor in her hometown, and trying for a baby. At seventeen, Tilly lost her mother to cancer, and while her father drowned his grief in alcohol, she was left to play parent to her two younger sisters. Still, Tilly never let tragedy overtake her belief that hard work and good cheer could solve any problem. But one sweltering afternoon at the local fair, everything changes when Tilly wanders into the fortune teller’s tent and is greeted by an old childhood friend, now a psychic. "I’m giving you the gift of clarity," her friend says. "It’s what I always thought you needed." Soon Tilly starts seeing things - her father relapsing, staggering out of a bar, and Tyler uprooting their happy, stable life. Even more disturbing, these visions start coming true. Suddenly Tilly’s perfect life seems to be crumbling around her, and she’s not sure what's more unsettling - that she’s begun to see the future or what the future holds.
