I can't find one easily, but it does look like pytsk3 is what you want -- looking at the link you provided, the name is 'pytsk3-...'. So what should be sufficient is to install the Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7 [1], then run 'python -m pip install pytsk3'. That should be enough to get you going.
