Matheson is a fine writer, even though his stories are strictly genre. This one involves a man who discovers, much to his and his wife's displeasure, that he has certain psychic abilities. He can very nearly read what is in people's minds (not a pleasant ability), can foresee some events, and sees the ghost of a mysterious woman in his house. Who is she? What happened to her? and can his marriage survive the strain of his new found abilities? I enjoyed discovering the answers in this novel, written in the 1950s.
