Owl Eyes: A paranormal Experience (Paperback)

"What the heck are we doin' in the Yukon? We're lab rats, not explorers."

Marty Relson

Three American scientists, Mike McCord, his wife Donna and their business partner, Marty Relson, team up to search for the dietary ingredient that produces world class trophy moose in the Yukon Territory. If they can isolate the protein, the synthesized version could be worth millions as a replacement for growth hormones in beef cattle. To acquire the best specimens, the trio needed access to a wide variety of native vegetation, so Mike hired veteran outfitter and guide, Karl Thomas to provide a float trip down the famous Caribou River. Suffering from a recent back injury, Thomas assigned two native brothers, Little Eagle and Owl Eyes, to guide the American scientists. For various reasons, the young guides did not get along with the three Americans.

"We woke up one morning and everything was gone," Donna explained. "They took everything. They took the canoes, the food, they even took our boots. Then they came back to kill us."

The trio is forced to kill both native guides, which leads to criminal proceedings in the Canadian legal system.

The younger brother, Owl Eyes, has the power of the Ancient Ones and, in the form of an apparition, nearly drives Marty Relson to a mental breakdown. As a spirit, Owl Eyes' appearances are usually preceded by the odor of rotting flesh and the temperature dropping to a clammy fifty degrees Fahrenheit.

After several encounters with Owl Eyes the apparition, Marty is driven to the point of committing murder. Thinking he is finally free, Marty finds that Owl Eyes has even greater powers when he stuns Marty in the final chapter.
