This late 20th Century historical novel by award winning author Bryan Costales, examines the life and times of Jo Bailey. Presented in the form of a sequence of letters, articles, news account, diaries, and audio tapes, each told by someone who cared about Jo. It is the combined nature of these narratives that provide a rich overview of the last part of the 20th Century and and of Jo Bailey's ability to foresee death but never prevent it.

I re-read a few of the chapters and they still are exciting for me to read. I hope others appreciate it the way I do.
