Tom, Huck, Becky, Jim, and Zane Rasmussen, a teen time-traveler from the 21st century, fake footprints and evidence to claim they've killed one of the monsters on an island and saved the village. Their plot is upstaged when a man is found mauled and huge footprints are discovered. The co-conspirators are chilled to realize they might be dealing with a real monster.
When modern-day thirteen-year-old Zane wakes from a coma in 1849 Missouri, his plans for adventure in Indian Territory with Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, and Jim are halted by the kidnapping of Becky Thatcher.
