The year is 1607.

A child has gone missing from a small English parish. Some whisper he has fallen in the river. Others say he’s been taken. There are no police to search, no telegraph to spread the alarm, no TV bulletin to circulate a picture. His family has nothing but their grief — and their faith.

So they do what countless others did in those years: they carry their question to an astrologer.

We explore the lives and fortunes of John Forman, William Lilly, Nostradamus and Evangeline Evans - controversial figures who made their names as beiing astrological authorities garnering massive followings. But there is a reason that forensic astrology is seen as pseudoscience to our modern eyes...
