He can predict when your coffee will spill, but can he stop a skyscraper from collapsing?Kyle Mercer has the world’s most underwhelming superpower: he predicts mundane events with 100% accuracy. From burnt toast to bird droppings, his 'gift' is more cosmic joke than heroic asset. His life consists of stocking shelves at SuperMart and dodging his manager’s disapproval. But when Kyle’s trivial predictions start forming an alarming pattern around the city’s newest skyscraper-OmniCorp’s glittering Spire -he realizes his useless ability might be the only warning of a catastrophic disaster. Armed with a notebook full of meticulously documented, minor future mishaps and aided by his ever-optimistic, entrepreneurial friend Dani,, Kyle must infiltrate the corporate fortress and convince skeptical executives that their building is doomed-all while dodging a rival psychic peddling conspiracy theories and trying not to get arrested. Can the Reluctant Oracle turn his power for predicting the pointless into the key to preventing the unthinkable? Or is he just the punchline to the universe’s biggest joke?A hilarious and suspenseful comedy thriller about finding the extraordinary in the ordinary, even when the ordinary involves predicting exactly when the office vending machine will malfunction.
