Description
Young lawyer Parker House is on the rise-until his grandfather's mysterious past puts both of their lives in danger.
Parker House's secret inheritance is either his greatest blessing . . . or his deadliest curse. The fresh-faced North Carolina attorney shares his German grandfather's uncanny ability to see future events in his mind's eye-a gift that has haunted 82-year-old Frank House through decades of trying to erase a murderous wartime past.
While Parker navigates the intrigue and politics of small-town courtroom law, Frank is forced to face his darkest regrets. Then, a big career break for Parker collides with a new love he longs to nurture and the nightmares his grandfather can no longer escape. Sudden peril threatens to shatter not only Parker's legal prospects but also his life and the lives of those dearest to him.
Two witnesses, two paths, an uncertain future.

Reviews
'In his latest legal novel, Whitlow (A House Divided) brings readers to New Bern, N.C., where Frank House and his grandson, Parker House, wrestle with an uncanny ability to see the future and the turmoil this talent inspires. Whitlow's characters continuously prove that God loves the broken and that faith is a lot more than just showing up to church. When Frank's past catches up to him and he realizes that Parker has inherited the gift, Frank is challenged to find a way to heal the scars of his soul and guide his grandson to a path that honors the gift that God has given them. Whitlow's contemplative novel is a fine rumination on ethics, morality, and free will. ' * Publishers Weekly *
