Sacred Land Stories
Alternate history infused with magical reality
Legends on the Prairies
“Don’t you believe in legends?” Such a simple question, yet what Sacri really wants Alex to believe is that he is the hero from her legends, meant to save land sacred to her tribe. Alex is a lot of things: a painter, a sculptor, a dreamer. Fired from a good job, grieving for a woman he hoped to marry, he is the local drunk. He is a lot of things, but hero isn’t one of them.
In the heart of the lonesome prairies in 1892, Sacri’s determination entrances Alex. Despite everything, Alex finds himself praying to a God that he thought had abandoned him, in the hope that just maybe there is some truth to Sacri’s stories. To add to Alex’s unease is the certainty that Sacri’s brother, Silver, often merely glimpsed as a shadow riding his horse across the horizon, will happily kill Alex if he turns out not to be the man that Sacri thinks he is.

Ghosts on the Prairies
Some things are worth a fight. Strong words that Antoine’s father drilled into him. After his father mysteriously vanishes one night, Antoine must find another income or he risks losing the Sacred Land that his father swore to protect.
On a well-paying ranch, Antoine meets Emma, a victim of underground slavery. Fighting for her freedom costs him his home, his sister, his best friend, and puts in question all of his values. If he succeeds, will she and her son fit into his world?
The prairies of 1916-19 come alive with bootleggers, slavery, fools in sheets, haunting spirits, shifty tunnel runners, and even exploding churches.

Cursed on the Prairies
Russ has the perfect life planned: go to college, marry Isabelle, farm with his father and brothers. But then Isabelle is snatched by a bunch of men dressed like ghosts.
Who are these men terrorising them and trying to burn his gal for being a witch? His father thinks they’re acting out to scare them off the land. His brother wonders if they’re wanting a sacred plant that grows in the tunnels. His ma knows of other secrets haunting them… While those things might be true, his ghostly grandpa, Silver, shows Russ something he can’t ignore: a curse summoned years ago that may doom them all.
With lingering spirits, a troubled girl shadowing his destiny, dark rituals, a love potion, cursed men plaguing their lands, a prison break that takes him away from home when his wife needs him the most, and the earth itself trying to suck them in, Cursed on the Prairies proves that, in 1928 the prairies are still a place full of secrets that even a ghost can’t bury.
