书籍简介

令人着迷，扣人心弦，令人震惊......

充满了神秘感，充满了令人不安的气氛。帕特里克-拉登-基夫 如果你预感到有什么可怕的事情要发生呢？如果你能分享你的预见，并防止灾难的发生呢？1966年，在英国一家过时的精神病院工作的英国精神病学家约翰-巴克(John Barker)建立了预感局来解剖这个想法。他找到了一个由好奇的通讯员组成的网络，其中有两个极具天赋的 "预言家"。

他们一起以不可思议的准确性预测了灾难和国际事件。然后，他们向巴克发出了令人不安的警告：他即将死亡。

Brimming with mystery and suffesed with haunting atmosphere.' Patrick Radden Keefe What if you had a vision that something terrible was going to happen?A train crash, a department store fire, an assassination. What if you could share your vision, and prevent a disaster? In 1966, John Barker, a British psychiatrist working in an outdated British mental hospital, established the Premonitions Bureau to investigate this very idea. He would find a network of curious correspondents, and among them two highly gifted 'percipients'.

Together, they predicted calamities and international incidents with uncanny accuracy. And then, they gave Barker their most disturbing warning: that he was about to die.
