This was a good book. After some many years I decided to read a Christoper Pike book. I read his books when I was younger. I decided to read this one. This book was really great. It is about a girl who just wants to save her friends and all the horrible things she has to go through to do it. I couldn't put this book down.

One of my favorite books when I was a teen-ager. Christopher Pike wrote some of the most memorable books that helped to encourage my interests in books with the "gothic" feel to them. This was one of them.

She was a good witch.
Julia is a young woman with extraordinary powers. She has the ability to heal people with her touch. She can also know things that are happening in far off places when she looks in water that has sunlight on it. She comes from a tradition of witches, of good witches. But before Julia's mother died, she warned her daughter never to look in water that had moonlight shining on it. Unfortunately, almost by accident, Julia does so. What she sees is a vision of the future, a scene in which a young man she doesn't know is shot in a hold-up and dies in her arms. Only later, when Julia attends a football game at school, does she meet the young man.
He is her girl friend's new boyfriend.
Julia immediately falls for the guy, but it is an ill-fated love. He does not belong to her and he is supposed to die. Or does he have to die? Julia doesn't know if her vision of the future is set, or if it can be changed. She doesn't know why the gunmean in her vision evokes such hatred in her, and why she feels she must destroy him at all costs. But using the supernatural powers at her command, and risking her own life, plus the lives of her friends, Julia will find the answers to all these questions...............
at a terrible cost......
