Told in the words of Isaac, a Choctaw boy who does not survive the Trail of Tears, How I Became a Ghost is a tale of innocence and resilience in the face of tragedy. From the opening line, "Maybe you have never read a book written by a ghost before," the reader is put on notice that this is no normal book. Isaac leads a remarkable foursome of Choctaw comrades: a tough-minded teenage girl, a shape-shifting panther boy, a lovable five-year-old ghost who only wants her mom and dad to be happy, and Isaac's talking dog, Jumper. The first in a trilogy, How I Became a Ghost thinly disguises an important and oft-overlooked piece of history.

In addition to the dangers of being kidnapped by a drug cartel, and surviving a plane crash in the jungle, he now has a new worry, one of a supernatural kind. He has become the target of a Tucano Indian sorcerer, who believes that Travis has stolen something valuable from him, and he will stop at nothing to get it back. Using his power to create illusions, the sorcerer will try to get it back, and take revenge on Travis for taking it from him. Part Four, 'Illusions', begins as Travis is arriving back home, just weeks before he is to take his wife on their second honeymoon trip to Greece. But little does he know, the danger he is in, as the old sorcerer closes in on him, and even follows him on the plane to Greece.
