This adult horror story is based on northeastern Native American beliefs about such magical creatures as skinwalkers and shapeshifters.
?Yah-ko? is Algonquian for ?evil little men? goblin-like creatures that can shape-shift into animals. A Mohawk shaman describes them as the spawn of Gan-Nos-Guah the human flesh eater. The Yah-ko are at war with the Nen-Us-Yoks or ?spirit dwarf people? the spawn of Oh-ke the Earth Mother. Accurate research and a compelling story line make this book an entertaining scary read.
Jamie Sutliff has turned a number of his stories into award-winning screenplays including The Devil Wind which won a Laurel Leaf for best screenplay at Hollywood?s Independent Film Festival; Yah-Ko which won the Silver Award at the International Independent Film Awards; and Antidote Man a semifinalist at the Hollywood Circus Road Film Festival.
