About The Boot Hill Curse 

AN EPIC YA WESTERN TIME-TRAVEL ADVENTURE CONTINUES…

After saving Sheriff Amos Malone from a deadly poker game, twelve-year-old Pete Moss—formerly Dominick Dalesandro—thought his time-traveling days were over. But when he discovers that the sheriff has found himself in more trouble, Pete knows he has no choice but to return to 1888 Abilene, Kansas and rewrite history once again.  

This time, Pete faces two deadly mysteries—clearing a buried man’s name and uncovering a powerful townsperson’s dark secret. As he pieces the truth together, a brutal attack on a child sparks rising tensions, putting Pete in the crosshairs of a town on the brink of violence.

With outlaws, corrupt landowners, and a town full of secrets standing in his way, Pete races against time to expose the truth, protect the innocent, and stop the sheriff’s tragic fate. But some people will do anything to keep the past buried—including burying Pete alive. Can Pete outsmart history again, or will this trip to the Wild West be his last?

Perfect for fans of YA Westerns and time-travel adventures, The Abilene Kid: Boot Hill Curse delivers high-stakes action, historical intrigue, and a hero who refuses to let the past win.
