Keera Miles, an Assistant Professor of Anthropology and closet medium, is given a mission straight from the astral plane: travel back 200 years to an 1800s Oglala Lakota camp and retrieve the Inyan Wakhan-a Sacred Stone of extraterrestrial origin with miraculous healing powers. The catch? Physical objects can't travel through non-physical dimensions.
To pull off the impossible, her spirit guide pushes her to team up with Zach Bones, a wisecracking, street-smart Chicago journalist up to his neck in loan shark debts. Zach doesn't believe in time travel, ghosts, or alien rocks-until he wakes up two centuries in the past, trapped inside the body of a Lakota man whom the locals dismiss as simple.
Posing as a grieving widow and a village outcast, Keera and Zach must navigate local taboos, avoid suspicious elders, and steal a relic guarded like a holy war prize. But with time running out, hostile spirits circling, and the original owners of their host bodies waiting to reclaim their minds, one wrong move could trap them in the 19th century forever.
Amazon Customer reactions:Fast-paced. Plenty of unexpected humor pops up. Loved reading it.
Quite a page-turner, with plenty of action, entertaining plot twists, and flashes of unexpected humour.
Plenty of thrills here, but I didn't expect the humor. Made me laugh out loud.
What an imaginative and thrilling journey.
