After starting college in her thirties and graduating with a Master of Wildlife Science in wildlife studies, Christy J. Kendall served as a Wildlife Biologist, Refuge Manager, and Project Leader at multiple wildlife refuges across the country with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for twenty-five years. During those years she grew to love and understand the employees, volunteers, and non-profit organizations who gave their time and money to support conservation. In the genre of mystery, and through fictional characters, she tells their stories.
