SHINING WATER is on Pahranagat National Wildlife Refuge near Alamo, Nevada and Las Vegas.
SHINING WATER

Lilly Weathers, a retired investigative researcher, leashes up her two dogs and begins a new life as an RV volunteer for national wildlife refuges. Her first job lands her in Nevada in the middle of a murder conspiracy that involves military readiness training. 


A Wildlife Refuge Mystery - Book Two

 Shining Water is a tale infused with mystery and suspense. Family feuds, government mistrust, ancient rock writings, and a close proximity to Area 51. A page-turner that will keep you guessing! 

-Mary Lee Ashford, author Sugar and Spice series, and co-author of the national bestselling Pampered Pets mystery series.


Christy J. Kendall has managed to do something that has become exceedingly rare - a unique protagonist and a one-of-a-kind setup. A wildlife refuge bordering Area 51 begs strange goings-on. Great writing, and a story that delivers! 

-Joel W. Barrows, author of the Deep Cover series.


As I read in, I got hooked on the protagonist, Lilly Weathers. Carrying private grief, she moves to a new start in Nevada, not far from the secret U.S. government Area 51. There she’s pulled into an unsolved killing. It’s her heart, soul, and quiet bravery that drew me in. She’s down to earth and very human, and hopefully, she’ll be around for a long while.

-Kirk Russell, Best Selling Author of the Paule Grale Thrillers, the Ben Raveneau Thrillers, and the John Marquez Thrillers.


"Christy J. Kendall's Shining Water is unlike anything out there. Fast, fresh, and full of surprises." 

-Best Selling Author, Tim Maleeny
