SOUL CATCHER

The hoquat world knew him as Charles Hobuhet, imitation white man, quiet follower of the soulkilling modern way.

The Spirit World knew him as Katsuk, the avenger, balancer of heaven and earth. Blood for blood.

David Marshall, his 13-year-old hoquat captive, knew him as kidnapper. Friend. Teacher. Executioner.

"An extraordinary book! Weaves a spell... with its eloquent and powerful narrative!"
-DEE BROWN
Author of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee

I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
