Beware the Ides of March: A Novel Based on Psychic Readings by Bruce Miller.

Do you believe in fortune-telling? You will be after reading this spine-chilling true story!

A young law student is told a terrifying prophecy by his girlfriend's mother, a psychic. The psychic breaks down in tears as she foresees the murder of a young pregnant woman by ruthless criminals. She begs the law student to prevent the tragedy.

Years later, the law student barely remembers his girlfriend, but the prophecy has lodged itself in his brain. Perhaps it's because it was the only time he's ever had his fortune told. Then, the horrifying events he was foretold start to happen.
