Acknowledgments

A huge thanks to my readers, Linda Craig, Carrie Elrick, Suzanne Walters, and Chelsea Reimer, for your feedback and advice. Special thanks to my mother, Marcia Craig, for your unflinching editorial eye, and to Ursula Siegler for inspiring me in many ways at a young age. My sincere gratitude also goes to Becky Zins, Brian Farrey, Barbara Moore, Steven Pomije, and all the other staff at Midnight Ink Books who have contributed to the success of the Five-Star Mystery Series. Thank you also to Evan Penner of the West End Guest House in Vancouver and to David Marshall and Michael Dwyer of Perth Manor in Ontario for your perspectives on running a bed-and-breakfast (I mean manor). And finally, thank you to my friends and colleagues, both past and present, at Opus Hotels.
