Lara slept, and dreamed of her parents’ smiling faces. In the dream, she was home.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Obviously, massive shout-out to Tomb Raider fans. I hope I didn’t disappoint, and you’ve had a quick, fun read. Lara’s been around for a long time, and it’s been a pleasure to pay my respects to her.
A few quick things on my own selfish behalf—I’d like to thank Jennifer Weltz and Ariana Philips, from JVNLA, for their always exceptional work. Thanks to Sam Matthews at Titan, for hiring me and then letting me pester her with unusually specific questions. Thanks also to Jason Dozois, Jill Murray, Rodney Lelu, and David Anfossi at Eidos-Montréal, and to Rich Briggs and Meagan Marie at Crystal Dynamics, for their interest and time.
Gratitude as always to my long-suffering nuclear family— Myk, Cy, and Dex—for putting up with me on yet another tight deadline, and to my very dear friends and relatives who don’t sweat it when I drop out of sight for weeks at a time. I love you people.
