I’ll begin by thanking my agent, Laney Katz Becker at Massie & McQuilkin. She’s absolutely incredible. Her knowledge, insight, and patience helped me improve this book tremendously. Plus, she sold the book to an amazing editor.
That amazing editor is Danielle Perez at Berkley. I can’t put into words how fortunate I am to have such a diligent, talented, and overall fun editor to work with. Danielle was enthusiastic about Killer Choice from the start, and I’m forever indebted to her for everything—including taking a chance on a new author.
I also want to thank my copy editor, Robin Catalano, who did a phenomenal job, especially when it came to ironing out all the details. Also, a big thanks to the art director, Emily Osborne, for designing this cover, which I absolutely love. And a huge thank-you to all the amazing people on the team at Berkley—you all helped make my dream come true.
Jordan Redwood, Dr. Richard Mabry, and Dr. Joshua Sasine helped with the medical details in this novel. Jordan and Richard are also thriller authors, so check out their books. And just remember: if there are any errors in the medical scenes in Killer Choice, I’m the one to blame.
I wrote a majority of this novel at Y Cafe on Twelfth and B in New York City. Thanks to Gloria and the rest of the staff for giving me a great place to write, hang out, and grab a bite; they’re the best. Order the catfish curry if you go.
Lastly, thanks to you, the reader. There are so many good books out there, and I’m honored you chose Killer Choice. I hope you enjoyed it.
