The Shadow Patrol

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Thanks to Neil, Ivan, Leslie, Tom, Marilyn, Matthew, and everyone else at Putnam who makes John Wells come to life. Thanks to Heather, who battles tirelessly for the best deal, and Dev, who watches the watchers. Thanks to my family for all your support and thoughtful comments. And, of course, thanks to Jackie, wife, friend, and partner.

I also want to extend a special thanks to Lt. Paszterko, Capt. Field, and the rest of the “Hard Rocks” for putting me up, and putting up with me, in Kandahar last year. Seeing the United States military in action is a privilege and honor. Stay safe.

As always, thanks to anyone who got this far, and please do write me at alexberensonauthor@gmail.com with comments and suggestions. I promise to do my best to write back. (And if you’re not sick of me yet, you can follow me on Facebook and Twitter.)
