Shadows at Red Rock
(2025)(The second book in the Kit Danvers Mystery series)
A Story by Grace Greenwood and Maisy Marple
Some secrets are worth killing for...
Travel writer Kit Danvers just wanted a peaceful stay at Valley of Fire State Park to research her next article and find inspiration for her mystery novel. Instead, she finds herself entangled in murder when controversial developer Greg Lutz is found dead at the base of the stunning Fire Wave formation—supposedly the victim of a tragic hiking accident.
But Kit isn't convinced, especially after discovering inconsistencies at the scene: Greg's expensive camera is missing, his tent was ransacked, and his hiking boots are suspiciously clean for someone who supposedly fell while exploring the dusty red rocks.
Alongside her faithful Australian Cattle Dog, Yarrow, Kit begins asking questions that make someone in the picturesque park decidedly uncomfortable. When she uncovers a mysterious petroglyph that might lead to a legendary treasure hidden in the desert, she realizes Greg's death could be connected to something far more valuable than a luxury resort development.
As Kit follows a trail of cryptic clues through stunning slot canyons and ancient cave dwellings, she discovers a network of hidden caches containing centuries-old secrets. But each revelation brings new danger, with warning shots fired and rockslides that are anything but natural. Someone is determined to keep the desert's secrets buried—and they're willing to add Kit to the body count.
With help from archaeologist Jordan Cross and wildlife photographer Maya Reynolds, Kit races to uncover the truth before the killer strikes again. But in this breathtaking landscape where shadows shift like the desert sands, anyone could be hiding dark secrets—even those Kit has come to trust.
Can a travel writer with a knack for investigation and her keen-nosed companion unravel the mystery before they become the next victims to vanish into the red rocks? And who can she trust when everyone in the park seems to have shadows of their own?
"Shadows in the Red Rock" is the second book in the delightful Kit Danvers Mystery series, perfect for fans of small-town mysteries, amateur sleuths, and lovable canine sidekicks. Join Kit and Yarrow as they navigate danger, deception, and the stunning beauty of Valley of Fire in this charming whodunit that proves the most dangerous secrets often hide in the most beautiful places.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
