ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I want to thank:

Mud for poisons and continuity.

The Beast Claws for being such a fantastic street team. GO, CLAWS!

Lee Williams Watts for being the Claws’ primo, and for offering constant encouragement, assistance, and friendship.

A certain gentleman for the name of one of the Bad Guys, Jack Shoffru, and the lizard’s name, LongFellow. Excellent names, by the way!

Misty Massey for bits and pieces of pirates. Errr . . . pirate info. Not pirates themselves. That would be very messy.

My new PR team, Mindy and Audrey at Let’s Talk! Promotions.

Most importantly—my editors, Jessica Wade and Jesse Feldman.
