Cheat the Grave

Acknowledgments

Profound thanks go to my business and creative partners, Miriam Kriss and Diana Gill, whom I’m also blessed to call my friends. Immense gratitude also goes out to Jeaniene Frost, Melissa Marr, Kim Harrison, and Rachel Vincent for being ever-supportive allies and peers. Thanks to my readers as well, especially Dave Torres, Raven, and Joy Maiorana for early readings, and those other twisted souls on my message board who’ve used my books as an excuse to spawn happy chaos in cyberspace. I’m proud to be your mascot.
