    “The graphic details of the story brought me into every event as if I was there. ...I would recommend anyone who enjoys fantasy stories and reading about Native American culture to pick up The Pyres of Destiny.” ~ Readers’ Favorite Book Reviews, Stephanie Chapman 
    The trial that captured the world’s attention has ended, leaving in its wake a path of humiliation and broken hearts. Jake and Dakota emerge scarred, but free from the shackles of both his past and her guarded secret, anxious to turn the page on a new chapter in their lives. Yet some wounds fester. 
    Behind the closed doors of the privileged, depravity and dark desires prevail. In a world mired in insatiable appetites and fueled by sins older than mankind, an ancient, evil entity gains strength. 
    Caught in the crosshairs between two worlds, can Jake and Dakota connect what was to what is? Can they bridge the physical and the supernatural? The Destiny of mankind may well hang in the balance. 
    EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS the second book in the thrilling “Call of Destiny” series. Set against the backdrop of the American West, a tug of war unfolds between 21st-century forensics, American Indian spirituality, and ancient prophecy.
