Las Vegas magician Cris Johnson has a secret gift and a curse which torments him: he can see a few minutes into the future. Sick of the examinations he underwent as a child, he lies low under an assumed name in Vegas, performing and living off small-time “winnings.” When a terrorist group threatens to detonate a nuclear device in L. A., agent Callie Ferris must use all her wiles to capture Cris and convince him to help her stop the cataclysm.
