Summary
A small-town police chief, Lee Tucker, investigating the murder of a young woman is offered help by a supposed clairvoyant, Franklin Wills, who gives him details of the crime that he's seen in visions. The details are startlingly correct, but Tucker is not convinced that Wills is indeed clairvoyant and begins to suspect him of the murder. Based on a true crime case
