5.0 out of 5 stars 1885 Gold Strike Mystery, Jul 30 2003
Four boys on a camping trip with their parents decide to spend the night in the cemetery above the ghost town Bodine, Arizona. Two had to be coaxed there through a dare. While sitting around a campfire telling stories they are frightened off by the sight of a luminous bluish weeping women in a long flowing dress. It's Annie Murphy, the murderess! They run back to their parent's camp to tell their tale.

The boys' sighting draws serious investigators to the site. Professor MacPherson, an astrophysicist and an Old West Buff whose convinced that the strange phenomenon is caused by a severe disturbance in the magnetic field within the town, and Dr. Jacob Cooper, an archeologist and his two children Jay and Lila. Mac wants Dr. Cooper to examine a massive carving done of a weeping woman on the cliff in the cemetery above the grave of Cyrus Murphy, Annie's murdered husband. Annie was a master carver who worked in both wood and stone.

The Cooper children wide up in the thick of the mystery as they are sucked back in time and Sheriff Dustin Potter is propelled forward. Being a sheriff doesn't always make a man the good guy. Getting to the bottom of this mystery could cost the professor, the Coopers and even Annie Murphy's life.

Frank Peretti is as good as his press, a master storyteller. I read this in a single sitting because I simply had to know what was going to happen next. Annie Murphy's story is a good read for adults and children alike!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great time-travel story, Feb 4 2003
By Dave (from Gondor) - See all my reviews
Is there anything that Peretti can't write - or won't? This time (get it?) the Coopers are in the good old US, and traveling with their old buddy Mac to a strange desert location. Ghostly sightings, and massive cliff carvings make their trip worth it...until they are separated by the minor amount of two hundred years! Jay and Lila desperately try to decipher the messages being left in the past...while Doc and Mac try to decipher the messages being left at the same time...in the future!!

The adventure and fun of the Coopers hits new heights with The Legend of Annie Murphy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Time-traveling, Jul 29 2002
By A Customer
This was a very good book. I enjoyed it all, I couldn't put it down! I love books that have time-travel in them. This book was about Jay and Lila switching places in time with a sheriff from 100 years ago. They were investagating the mystery of Annie Murphy who supposedly killed her husband. People had said that strange carvings had apeared in the canyon where she once lived, and supposedly was shot for muder. What really ocured was that a time vortex caught Annie, who now floats in and out of time, between 100 years. The vortex was caused because of the wierd gravity in the canyon. When both kids and sheriff come close to her at the same point in time, the vortex causes them to switch places in time. The kids and their father discover a plot between the judge and the sheriff, to frame Annie. Is she a murderer or not? And will the kids return to they're own time before the time vortex disapears? As I said, I couldn't put this book down.
