ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Let’s do this quickly because you don’t want to read a long acknowledgment and I don’t want to write one. I’ll start with Ben Sevier, who has been my editor/publisher for over a dozen books now. The rest of the team includes Michael Pietsch, Wes Miller, Beth deGuzman, Karen Kosztolnyik, Autumn Oliver, Jonathan Valuckas, Matthew Ballast, Brian McLendon, Staci Burt, Andrew Duncan, Alexis Gilbert, Joseph Benincase, Albert Tang, Liz Connor, Flamur Tonuzi, Kristen Lemire, Mari Okuda, Rick Ball, Selina Walker (heading up the UK team), Charlotte Bush, Lisa Erbach Vance (agent extraordinaire), Diane Discepolo, Charlotte Coben, and Anne Armstrong-Coben.

A very special thanks to Person I’m Forgetting to Acknowledge Who Is Also Very Forgiving. You know who you are. You rock. Thank you for just being you.

I’d also like to give a quick shout-out to Timothy Best, Jeff Eydenberg, David Greiner, George Kissell, Nancy Urban, and Marti Vandevoort. These people (or their loved ones) made generous contributions to charities of my choosing in return for having their name appear in this novel. If you’d like to participate in the future, email giving@harlancoben.com for details.
