Kay Kendall

Kay Kendall writes atmospheric mysteries that capture the spirit and turbulence of the sixties. A reformed PR executive who won international awards for her projects, Kay lives in Texas with her Canadian husband, three house rabbits, and spaniel Wills. Terribly allergic to her bunnies, she loves them anyway! Her book titles show she's a Bob Dylan buff too. RAINY DAY WOMEN published on July 7--the second in her Austin Starr Mystery series. The E-book, trade paperback, and audio-book are available now. Kay says, "In my mystery series featuring Austin Starr, amateur sleuth, I explore what life was like for a typical young woman--not a headline maker, not a Hanoi Jane or Angela Davis, but a moderate who nonetheless got swept up by history's tides during the turbulent sixties. All that turmoil lends itself to drama, intrigue, and murder." Stairway Press published Kendall's debut mystery, DESOLATION ROW. in 2013, as well as RAINY DAY WOMEN. DESOLATION ROW was a finalist for the Silver Falchion Award in 2014 presented by Killer Nashville. A short story "Strangers on a Plane" launched in January 2015, on Kindle. It is part of a collection of 13 Kindle stories called THE PROMETHEAN SAGA. Kay is a member of Mystery Writers of America and serves as secretary of its Southwest Chapter. Also a member of International Thriller Writers, she is a contributing editors to its online monthly magazine, THE BIG THRILL. Other organizations she belongs to include Crime Writers of Canada, Writers League of Texas, Houston Writers Guild, and the Texas Association of Authors. She earned degrees in Russian history and studied the Russian language in the Soviet Union, which accounts for her being a student of the Cold War and aficionado of Russian culture.
