These are the continuing adventures of the psychic Julius Briscoe. It's autumn of 1964. Julius is reeling from a devastating loss and finally returns to Philadelphia after dealing with those responsible. Back in Philly, Julius learns that his brother has been named an equity partner in a prestigious Chicago law firm and needs a half million in cash for his buy-in. Which Julius exchanges for his brother's share of the Big Corners empire. So the Briscoes take flight number 505 to Chicago for a Thanksgiving dinner that can't be beat and a long-overdue family reunion. Did I mention the skyjackers?
White shoe lawyers, inept skyjackers, professional killers, the truth behind the Kennedy assassination, European supercars, a procession of potential girlfriends, a famous folk singer, a shoot-out in a swanky restaurant- are the highlights of Julius's visit to Chicago.
Then it's back to Philadelphia where things get weirder and stranger. There's a deranged lion tamer, a famous football rivalry, a foiled assassination, a miraculous healing, high-speed car chases, felony matchmaking, more confrontations with Tabula Rasa, a trio of movie stars, rock stars, terrorist kidnappers, and the world's greatest lasagna.
