​Tonight at 10 p.m. eastern, CBS' 48 Hours Mystery takes a look at the death of Faylene Grant, a mother who had visions of her own death. Before dying in Gilbert, Arizona in 2001, she wrote of seeing her philandering husband Doug Grant married to his former girlfriend, Hilary DeWitt.

"I know I will be here with my body until it is buried," the 35-year-old mom wrote. "I have held a secret hope and desire for several weeks that I would be able to see you both married, that I could be there!" But her husband wasn't figuring on a murder rap when he followed his wife's instructions to marry his ex-lover.

Paul Rubin, a reporter at our sister paper Phoenix New Times, has been following this story for more than a year. He'll be appearing on tonight's show, but you can see his initial investigation here, as well as the many subsequent stories he's written here.
