Inherit the Bones

Acknowledgments

This book would not have been written without the help of a great many people. David Neal and Ana Cabrales were my earliest readers, and their hunger for more chapters propelled me forward when I needed it most. Patricia Hackett, William Lindenmuth, Kelda Neely, and Kathy Littlejohn offered suggestions that strengthened the story. Pam Ahearn and Elizabeth Lacks-you have truly changed my life. Don Sells, you told me once that you could see me as a writer. Here’s to offhand comments on cold Oxford days. Mom, Carrie, Kathy, Matt, Jim, and Jill, your support means the world to me. And to my dear husband, Christopher, you are simply the best. I love you more.
