Following the discovery of two graves dating back to the 1700s, Dr. Wyatt Henderson is transported back through time to historic Boonesborough, Kentucky, where he meets Daniel Boone, Simon Kenton, and other historic pioneer figures as they live off the land, survive conflicts with local Indians, and fight for survival on a daily basis.
The Incident at Otter Creek, a work of historical fiction, is a realistic portrayal of life for the early pioneers who traveled along the Boone Trace and settled Fort Boonesborough, and the story of one twenty-first century man who learns to live, and love, in an eighteenth century world.
