Shut Your Eyes Tight

Acknowledgments

When I finished my first novel, Think of a Number, I had the extraordinary good fortune to be represented by a remarkable agent, Molly Friedrich-along with her wonderful associates, Paul Cirone and Lucy Carson.

My good fortune was confirmed when the book was acquired by Crown’s Rick Horgan, a marvelous editor.

Today I continue to be blessed by the guidance and support of these honest, smart, and talented people. Their ideal combination of perceptive criticism and heartening enthusiasm made my new novel, Shut Your Eyes Tight, better in every way.

Rick, Molly, Paul, Lucy-thank you!
