The author thanks first readers Laurie Box, Molly Box Donnell, and Mark Nelson.
Thanks also to the support team of Jennifer Fonnesbeck (Facebook, Twitter, merchandise), Don Hajicek (website), Molly Donnell (graphics and images), and Templeton Rye.
It’s an author’s dream to work with terrific and sincere professionals in publishing at Penguin/Putnam in New York, including publisher Ivan Held, Michael (Cowboy) Barson, Kate Stark, Tom Colgan, and my legendary and brilliant editor, Neil Nyren.
Kudos, always, to my amazing agent and friend Ann Rittenberg.
