Book 1:Stealthy Steps Book 2:Stealth Power Book 3: Stealth Retribution
A brilliant scientist, committed to the betterment of mankind, integrates multiple disciplines and perfects nanotechnology. The results are not mere nanobots; think “artificial intelligence in a cloud.” But there are those who see darker uses for such technology. A duplicitous and cruel part of the scientist’s past follows his accomplishments until the time is right for her to strike.
Caught in the middle is a quiet, innocent, but strangely resourceful young woman—destined for an up-close-and-personal encounter with the “nanomites.” The outcome is brilliant and compelling! You will want to devour the entire series. —Col Bill Best, USAF (Ret)

“Vikki writes the kind of faith-filled fiction that hooks you within the first few pages, will not let you go until you have finished, and leaves you wishing for more.” —Janis Braun, Seattle, Washington
“Her books are not just for 'chicks'! I was amazed how engrossed I became in the lives of Vikki's characters, and how much I could relate to their situations.” —Ed Dunne, Los Angeles
“Be prepared to put life on hold. That's all I have to say!” —Rebecca H., New Jersey
“You will laugh, you will cry but, most of all, you will be uplifted.” —LaTisha Holland, St. Augustine, FL
Vikki Kestell’s passion for people and their stories is evident in her readers’ affection for her characters and unusual plotlines. Two often repeated sentiments are, "I feel like I know these people," and "I'm right there, in the book, experiencing what her characters experience."
Vikki holds a PhD in organizational learning and instructional technologies. She left a career of twenty-plus years in government, academia, and corporate life to pursue writing full time. "Writing is the best job ever," she admits.
Also an accomplished speaker and teacher, Vikki and her husband, Conrad Smith, make their home in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Bravo! This is what Christian fiction should be. The faith elements enhance Kestell’s captivating story filled with advanced technology, action, and deep characterization. In this world, so confused about what a Christian is, the word is frequently attached to any novel that mentions the word “pray.” Not so in the Nanostealth series. Kestell plunges into the depths of her character's faith (or lack of it) and has them facing the tough questions about what they believe and how it affects their lives. Because of the unique situations the Nanostealth personalities find themselves navigating, some of those faith questions go places you couldn’t imagine, and Kestell is not afraid to tackle them. After squaring off with the bizarre scenarios confronting Gemma Keyes and her friends, you’ll be surprised at the clarity those encounters can bring to our own struggles. In this quick-click, sound-bite world, our attention span can get degraded. Don’t let that cheat you from investing the time it takes for Kestell to flesh out the people she has created and the roads they travel. Soon you will know them like old friends and cherish the hours you spend with them. If you’re curious about what real Christianity is all about, here’s a fun way to find out. If you’re tired of the filth, the foul, and the insipid, grab onto Gemma’s hand and let her take you under the veil. ~Kent Wyatt, award-winning author of the Special Heroes series and Domestic Enemies~
I couldn't put it down, so it was a blessing that we had a Nor'easter and were snowed in for two days. I loved seeing how Gemma learned about the Lord and was eventually saved. Then, all through the rest of the books, we get to see her grow in her faith. You can't go wrong with any of Vikki's books!
I enjoyed reading every chapter of this book. There's always something going on. It also has little Scripture inserts here and there that are relevant to the story. It is not preachy but you can see how living a Christian life is different than living a worldly one. I love it.
