Synopsis

An ancient prophecy - a love denied - a haunting which has lasted 200 years. This compelling historical novel reveals the untold saga of a small California Indian tribe fighting for their survival during the summer of 1815. The protagonist, a young Yokut warrior named Kul-kit, murders a priest and orchestrates a rebellion against the Mission San Juan Bautista. A long- prophesied battle follows; Kul-kit and his betrothed are eternally separated, their love for one another denied as Spanish soldiers from the San Francisco Presidio annihilate the little tribe. The terror and blood-letting which results from that massacre leaves an indelible mark upon the terrain of the Pacheco Pass, a haunting which remains to this very day. The story, once read, also serves to explain the cause of the paranormal activity surrounding California's State Route 152 - in particular, the Pacheco Pass section of that highway. The Pacheco Pass continues to be a source of numerous reported instances of paranormal activity, prompting exposés by the SciFi Channel's Sightings and the Travel Channel's Haunted Travels.
