Death by Crow (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780993936173)

Nathan is a teenage boy suddenly aware of the immensity and implications of the visions he has had all his life, which he believes predict the future. But now he sees his own death which terrifies him, and he has nobody to talk to. Until he meets Cait, who also confesses to having disturbing visions, which she so far has successfully denied. It's her job to help Nathan, but she is more sympathetic than others who dismiss Nathan's angst, including his possible intentions of suicide. When he tells her a crow will smash into her window, she realizes that Nathan isn't making things up. Risking her job, Cait insists Nathan isn't acting out or pulling stunts for attention. But she makes a mistake, and loses Nathan's trust. She discovers that Nathan also may be the victim of bullying, which causes her to examine her own position in her working environment, and she takes steps to resolved some conflicts, and take a firm stand on helping Nathan. She believes his visions are connected to something deeper and she too is having visions of Nathan in trouble. When she sees Nathan on a bridge in an apparent suicide attempt, she tries to save him, but finds herself hospitalized from a head injury. Nathan comes to see her, and they reconcile. Much is explained. Before she can return to her job, she is slammed with another vision. Nathan is on the bridge. She knows it. And he his, but not for reasons she believed. Later, when she thinks she has a reason for her visions and that Nathan is able to deal with his, a crow smashes into a window, prompting another vision. Nathan is still in trouble. After the funeral, it becomes clear that Nathan's visions may not have been connected to the person who died because of a crow.
