Demon Forsaken was a very special book to me, as it allowed me to bring to life a story I first conceived as an idea called 24 Hours to Midnight. Thank you to everyone who read early versions of that story—you can see glimmers of it here, though Finn had his way with it! My ongoing thanks goes to Elizabeth Bemis for her fantastic work on my books and my site—and my gorgeous covers. My editorial team of Linda Ingmanson and Toni Lee were absolute champions on this book. As always, any mistakes in the book are most definitely my own. My thanks to Edeena Cross for her careful beta read, and to Sabra Harp, who helps remind me of everything I’ve forgotten. Special thanks too, to Geoffrey, for encouraging me to go where angels fear to tread. It’s most definitely been a leap worth taking.
