ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

THE VOLUNTEERS WHO WORK on political campaigns perform an exceptional service to our country. They spend long hours on fundraising, menial tasks, and promoting their candidate. All with no guarantee they will end up on the winning team. Unfortunately, I know what it feels like at the end of a hard-fought campaign to find yourself cleaning up the headquarters after losing the race. Still, it was an exhilarating experience overall. And I cherish memories of the dedicated volunteers who gave their best for our candidate. (Although I still think the “best man” didn’t win.)

I also want to thank my agent, Donna Eastman, and the supportive women of Amphorae: Kristina Makansi, Laura Robinson, and Lisa Miller. Finally, I want to thank you for reading my book—I hope you will continue reading the Discount Detective series.
