An old Hopi medicine man is brutally murdered during a pilgrimage to a secret shrine near the Grand Canyon. The gruesome murder is investigated by Jenny Hatch, the U.S. Forest Service archaeologist, and all of the clues to the mystery seem to lead back to ancient Hopi legends. The suspects include: a belligerent uranium mine owner; a renegade Indian leader of the Ghost Shirters; the flamboyant spiritual leader of the Crystal Heads; a rebel Hopi politician running for Tribal Chairman; the powerful Kachina Masaw; and even the Hopi traditionalist who was beheaded. Throw in a long lost map, and you have all the ingredients for the wondrous return of Masaw. "Kachina Roulette" is the second book in the Jenny Hatch mystery series, following on the hells of the very popular "Anasazi Strip". It is a fascinating tale of greed, environmental justice, lost legends, and playing with fire as powerful forces come together at the Black Butte Mine, each trying to pull the Kachina trigger without getting killed.

Antelope Girl is "Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" meets criminal land grabbers and the mighty Indian spirits of the American Southwest. Juniper Hatch, the outcast daughter of eminent archaeologist Jenny Hatch, returns home to the ancient village of Oraibi on Second Mesa after a short but distinguished military career in cyber warfare, fighting against the Russians in the Balkans, only to find a treacherous Russian oligarch with connections to the highest levels of the U.S. government, proposing to build the Grand Canyon Esplanade Resort on desolate Navajo land above the Grand Canyon, complete with gondolas running to the bottom of the sacred Little Colorado River, the spiritual epicenter of the Hopi world. Using the latest computer viruses, Juniper hacks her way along a deadly trail that leads to crooked Navajo politicians, a Russian mobster who murders his enemies with a lethal poison, and the mysterious RPS Global Security Company that supplies mercenaries and weapons to unsavory clients around the world. Juniper is aided in her dangerous struggle by her mentor the Hopi Sun Chief, and a young Navajo rebel named Lydon Za who becomes the reincarnation of Dawn Boy and the love of her life. Together, Juniper and Lyndon battle the terrible powers of the modern world and unleash Masaw, the Skeleton Kachina of the Little Colorado, in the name of the Sun Way.

"Anasazi Strip" is set in the isolated area north of the Grand Canyon known as the Arizona Strip, a spectacular land of redrock and long-forgotten civilizations. This is the first book in the Jenny Hatch mystery series, featuring Forest Service archaeologist Jenny Hatch, a tough red-haired lady who has dedicated her life to unraveling the mysteries of the ancient Anasazi who called the Arizona Strip home from the time of Christ until their vanishing act around 1200AD. This is a story about industrial strength pothunting, the illegal raiding of Indian ruins, by a retired federal judge and a cold-blooded Killer who served together in the Special Forces during and after the Vietnam War. Together, the two men leave a trail of bodies scattered across The Strip and baffle the local law enforcement officers. "Anasazi Strip" takes us through strange lands rarely seen - Western Grand Canyon, the Kaibab National Forest, the Paiute Indian Reservation, uranium mines, small Mormon towns, Lake Powell, the underground art world where Indian artifacts fetch big money from anonymous buyers from around the globe, and the forbidding Paria Plateau where all hell breaks loose at the Burial of the Magician. Along the way we meet many colorful characters that seem to leap off the page - brave cowboys, dying Indians, the unluckiest birdwatcher on earth, drug-crazed bikers, Jack Mormons, eco-terrorists, a soul-catching Killer who knows the Ritual of the Feather and the Fur, and the unstoppable Jenny Hatch who enters the spirit world and comes out on the other side.

"On September 6, 2004, with a simple click of a mouse, The World of Myth was born."That is what was written on the back of the very first anthology."Originally created to be a safe haven," it said. "...to polish their craft and share their ideas with each other. But it became more. Much more."As we present our fourth anthology to you, those words still ring true. What started as ten contributors has now grown to hundreds, a few stories, to thousands. This anthology, spanning three years of stories, poems, and drabbles, still offers the same excitement, the same polish, and the same thrill as that very first one.Inside these pages, you will find a variety of tales, ranging from humor to horror, fantasy to fiction, poetry and drabbles.Hairy noses will haunt you; bunnies will baffle you, and penance will be paid. Each piece will grab an emotion and you will experience the words as they come alive on the page. Some pieces will tear you open and expose your deepest emotions, and some will make you laugh until you cry.All will entertain you.Welcome to The World of Myth Anthology 4.
