DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the spring of 1853 the Buchanan family arrived in the scenic Oil Creek Valley. They settled on a farm along the historic stream. A young Andrew Buchanan would later befriend Ole' Walter Tucker, a local trapper and bootlegger. When Tucker comes up missing, young Buchanan recalls a story the old trapper told about a 'wild man' that roamed the surrounding countryside. The boy's desperate search leads him to a local village where he finds an Indian who may know the whereabouts of his friend. Convinced that Tucker was abducted by the legendary 'Chiye-tanka' (pronounced shy-ah-tonka) the boy journeys to Hogback Mountain. He later makes a grisly discovery, one that will shake the entire valley.
