Celia Cleary thought she had her prophetic powers under control. After her intense visions about Jeffrey Johnson, her abilities settled into predicting minor accidents and small annoyances. Then her notebook fills itself with one name repeated endlessly: Patrick. Celia consults her family's guidebook and discovers Patrick connects to a Doomsday Prophecy. This type of vision predicts disaster for large groups of people, complete with a point of no return and catastrophic consequences. The target this time is her entire eighth grade class. Celia must identify which Patrick among her classmates sits at the center of the coming catastrophe. Time runs short as her luck turns bad and the prophecy edges closer to fulfillment. She relies on her grandmother's guidance and her friends' support, but even their combined efforts might not prevent the approaching doomsday. The fate of every eighth grader hangs in the balance.
