Two Steps Ahead

What if you could see disasters thirty seconds before they happened?

Zephyr Torres has spent her life as a risk assessment consultant, secretly using her supernatural gift to predict catastrophes with eerie precision. She sees the coffee spill, the construction accident, the avalanche; always two steps ahead, always too anxious to act. But when her sister Marlowe pushes her to finally use her abilities, Zephyr discovers she’s been preventing disasters that were never supposed to be accidents at all.

What starts as a simple avalanche prevention spirals into a conspiracy that reaches from corporate boardrooms to global climate policy. Someone has been systematically eliminating the world’s top environmental researchers while sabotaging the very technology designed to save civilization from climate collapse. And they’ve been using Zephyr’s gift to perfect their timeline for mass murder disguised as natural disaster.

But Zephyr isn’t alone. Across the globe, others possess similar abilities; a weather predictor in Tokyo, a transportation coordinator in São Paulo, a systems analyst in Cape Town. When they discover their supernatural gifts aren’t random quirks but evolutionary responses to institutional-scale threats, they face an impossible choice: use their abilities to prevent genocide, or watch as technological civilization is systematically destroyed to justify managed population decline.

Can a handful of people with supernatural pattern recognition stop a conspiracy thirty years in the making? What happens when your greatest strength becomes the weapon used against you? And when the people trying to save the world discover they’re not just fighting for individual lives, but for the right of human consciousness to evolve beyond institutional control, how far will they go to protect a future worth living in?

From coffee shop predictions to global coordination against systematic elimination, Two Steps Ahead is a thriller that asks: What if your anxiety wasn’t a limitation, but an evolutionary advantage? What if the disasters you fear most are the ones someone else is planning? And what if preventing the end of the world meant becoming something more than human?
In a world where climate change meets corporate conspiracy, where supernatural gifts collide with systematic sabotage, and where the future of human consciousness hangs in the balance…sometimes two steps ahead is exactly where you need to be.

The question isn’t whether you can predict the future. The question is: what will you do when you see it coming?

Perfect for readers who loved Person of Interest, or The X-Files—but want their supernatural thriller with wit, heart, and hope for humanity’s technological future.
