I’d like to thank those who helped in the creation and completion of this novel. First, the locals in Anaconda and Butte, Montana, who unbeknownst to them were my hosts and tour guides of these two unique locations.
Second, my invaluable first readers: Laurie Box, Becky Reif, Molly Box, and Roxanne Woods. Thanks again.
Kudos to Molly and Prairie Sage Creative of cjbox.net for social media expertise.
It’s a sincere pleasure to work with the professionals at St. Martin’s Minotaur, including Kelley Ragland, Jennifer Enderlin, Andy Martin, and Hector DeJean.
Ann Rittenberg—thanks for always being in our corner.
