The
first book in Krista Lynn's trilogy, Blood Stones: The Haunting of Sunset
Canyon, is now available.
This is Kris Lynn's (Krista
Lynn's) debut romantic mystery novel. The story blends Native American
Indian lore with a contemporary ghost story in the magic red rock landscape of
central Arizona. "Like a spider's web, the spell of the canyon holds two
families in the intertwining strands of two quests - one for gold, the other
for answers to an ancient curse. After years of living under the spectre of
greed and fear, will they finally unearth the truth of the treasure and face
the shocking reality of their own uncanny connections to the mysterious
entities who protect the secrets of Sunset Canyon?"
Krista Lynn is a late-comer to the author’s world
with a long academic career in earth sciences in her wake instead of years of
fiction writing. But, wind has filled all the sails this year, with the release
of Blood Stones, the first book in
the Haunted Canyon Series.
It’s no mystery why Krista writes about the high
desert of Arizona. She grew up on a gold mine about 60 miles north of Phoenix.
The closest neighbor was 6 miles or so down the Agua Fria River, or another 20
miles by dirt road. To say it was a gold mine is technically correct, but very
little gold was ever mined. It did, however, keep gas in the jeep and food on
the table. The real treasure of this placer gold-mining venture was the lasting
impressions of living wild on the desert with her brothers, and a menagerie of
dogs, goats, and donkeys. And experiencing the magic and spirit of a rugged,
isolated landscape where mysteries are carried on the wind, and whispered in
your sleep. Years later, these experiences are the multi-colored threads woven
into her series of romantic supernatural
suspense set in the high desert of Arizona.
She taught physical geography and GIS courses at
CSUF and Fresno City College before taking an Academic Coordinator for GIS
Technologies at UC Davis Cooperative Extension where she built a GIS program to
assist agricultural research.
She now enjoys the full-time writing life in
California with her husband and a menagerie of dogs, goats and one spoiled
horse.
