Cyclonic hordes of insects, a telepathic despot, body-swapping sex - just a few of the surprises Salvador Samuels encounters when he finds himself swept back to pre-colonial times walking in the moccasins of a blind Indian - who, in turn, has been transported into Salvador's body in present-day America. Four hundred years apart, they're bound by a common mission to rescue our world, aided by the mysterious presence of the mounds.

Sacred Mounds suggests they are as important today as when they were made over a thousand years ago.
