The Hanged Man’s Song

AUTHOR’S NOTE

John Sandford conceived and wrote The Hanged Man’s Song, but with serious help this time. The help came from Roswell Camp of St. Paul, Minnesota, and Emily Curtis of Los Angeles, California, who together provided geographical research assistance, filled me in on some technical aspects of computers and online life (Emily informed me that “online” is now officially one word, rather than “on line” or “on-line”), kept me straight on the logic of the story, provided editing and production services, and also provided the occasional adjective or noun where needed. In keeping with Strunk and White, most adverbs were eliminated.
