Book Description

On the day after Christmas in 1862, thirty-eight innocent Dakota Sioux Indians were hanged in the largest mass execution in United States history. One hundred and fifty years later, Kyle Ghostkiller has the chance to go back and save them.

Kyle has just returned to town to accept a medicine bundle he has inherited from his ancestor, a man named Ghostkiller who was unjustly hanged in 1862. The ancient bundle contains tools giving Kyle the power to time travel. Arriving into town just after four teenagers are found brutally murdered, Kyle becomes a prime suspect; especially when the town gossip blames the Ghostkiller family curse during questioning by the FBI.

With Special Agent Lee Tarkington hot on his trail and a jilted, childhood sweetheart sabotaging his every move, Kyle escapes into the past where he must confront dark forces responsible for the murderous curse, or risk losing the "38" to the hangman's noose. It's a fierce battle between good and evil that Kyle must win.

Only the sacred ceremonies of his ancestors and Kyle's sheer determination will save his grandfather, but can he change history for the Great Sioux Nation?

Righting the wrongs of the past and making the world we live in a better place - only downside for me is that it is fiction. A great book. Found it on the free list and liked the sound of it so thought it would be worth downloading. It was more than just an acceptable read I could not put it down and am awaiting the next installment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Storyteller August 22, 2010
By Jen S.

Seriously, this book is wonderful. Lynny is really an amazing storyteller. I read the book in a day, because I couldn't put it down. I love the characters and how they interact with each other. I heard they will be starting production soon for the movie (starring the lovely Rick Mora). I can't wait!

3.0 out of 5 stars Great idea, poorly written June 18, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
The author is very knowledgeable about her subject and it shows. The story is imaginative and has a few really good creepy moments too. And I also like the idea of the land west of the Missouri belonging to its rightful owners. Having said that, the work is in dire need of heavy proofreading and editing. It is written really, really poorly. Maybe it's just me, but there are passages where the English is so bad that it actually hurts to read it and that gets in the way of my enjoyment of the story. I actually am wondering if perhaps English is not the author's mother tongue...

Enjoyed the tale & time travel. Too many typos, etc. Some parts of the story not fleshed out enough. Pretty Good though.

4.0 out of 5 stars DR
Interesting read, a lot of what it's. Time travel opens a can of worms as to how the future will be changed or if the time traveler will even be born.

When we think of ties that keep us in one area may we also remember sometimes the area keeps us safe. Be careful to count each day and be glad in it.

No, I don't believe so. If so, I think Lynny would've mentioned that on her website. It is currently being made into a movie though. I can't wait!!!!!!
