The story of Cognition revolves around Boston FBI agent Erica Reed, who has the unusual ability of postcognition, the ability to see into the past of any object that she touches. At first this power can't be controlled, but, after training with an antique shop owner named Rose, Erica is not only able to control her power, but use it in different ways. The only person who knows her secret is her partner, John McCoy. (wikipedia.org)
