Acknowledgments

This book, like the others in the Dodie O’Dell Mystery Series, is the result of help from a number of people. I owe them a debt of gratitude.

Thanks to all who entered the Killing Time character name contest, especially the winners: Tim Capalbo, Glen Holley, Katherine Wortman, and Andrea Karwandy. You’ll find your creative entries in the pages of this book.

Once again, I am grateful for the support I received at Kensington to make this mystery series a reality, especially from John Scognamiglio and Rebecca Cremonese.

I appreciate Dru Ann Love, Lori Caswell and the Great Escapes Tour bloggers, Roberta Isleib from Mystery Lovers Kitchen, and Brooke Showalter for their help in promoting my mystery series. Finally, thanks to my friends, family, and readers who supported my Dodie O’Dell journey. I have appreciated your sense of humor, inspiring feedback, enthusiasm, and the odd cup of tea (or something stronger) when needed. You know who you are!

Finally, my thanks to Elaine Insinnia, my first and last reader, who consistently and generously provided story ideas and encouragement as I wrote and rewrote. I couldn’t have done it without you….
