Marble, NC, February 27, 2014 -- The history: On the day after Christmas in 1862, thirty-eight innocent Dakota Sioux Indians were hanged in the largest mass execution in United States history.

The story: 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 the FBI's prime suspect.

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?

Author Lynny Prince takes readers on a journey blending history and the supernatural by empowering American Indians with the ability to change history by altering the past. Time travel, mystery, and the supernatural intertwine in this edge-of-your-seat thriller.

The first novel in the The Ghostkiller Trilogy, Scattered Leaves sets the stage for the series of American Indian novels based on historical events that change history in favor of American Indians.
