Harry Sparks and Sam Peters are fictional, although bounty hunters often transported prisoners to Yuma Territorial Prison. The gold Harry and Claire found is based on tales of Spanish plunder discovered in the desert on both sides of the border.
A huge thank you to the usual suspects: my wonderful partner Mark for his unfailing support and wicked sense of humor; early readers Ali, Jenni, and Michelle; Jim Van Houghten for double-checking the accuracy of the weapons I had the characters use; Charles Ray for reading and commenting on an early draft; Cathy Speight for the same; and of course the fantastic ARTeam—I couldn’t do this without you guys.
Writing is never a solitary endeavor.
