New York Times bestselling authors W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O’Neal Gear premiere a captivating new mystery series packed with ancient myth and reminiscent of Outlander by Diana Gabaldon and Craig Johnson’s Hell’s Empty.
When ancient evil refuses to stay buried, two worlds collide across eight centuries of mystery and murder.

Archaeologist Dusty Stewart and anthropologist Dr. Maureen Cole thought they were simply excavating another Southwest dig site—until they uncovered a mass grave that would consume their lives. What begins as scientific inquiry transforms into a terrifying journey through time as the echoes of an 800-year-old massacre refuse to remain silent.

In the present day, Dusty and Maureen race to decode cryptic clues left by a methodical killer whose brutality spans centuries. Ancient artifacts whisper of witches and shapeshifters, while the voices of the dead seem to guide—and haunt—their every discovery.

But this mystery has roots that run deep into the past. In 13th-century Hillside Village, War Chief Browser hunts the legendary monster known as Two Hearts, a killer who moves like shadow through the dying Anasazi civilization. As Browser and the wise Stone Ghost pursue their quarry through a world of hidden passions and deadly secrets, they unknowingly forge a connection across time with the modern investigators following the same dark trail.

From mass graves filled with battered children to ritualistic murders that mirror ancient witch ceremonies, from the mythical Wolf Witch to the perverted Spirit Power of creatures that should not exist, this six-book series weaves together past and present in an unforgettable tale of archaeological mystery, Native American folklore, and primeval evil that refuses to die.
Some secrets are buried for a reason. But when Dusty and Maureen Stewart disturb this particular grave, they discover that some killers are patient enough to wait centuries for their revenge.

The Anasazi Mysteries includes: The Visitant, Where the Basilisk Dreams, The Summoning God, The Two Hearted, Bone Walker, and Hunting Shadows.
