Finally, huge thanks to my son Jacob for providing laughs and smiles all through the production of this book, and to my wife Damaris, without whose support and encouragement I would not have gotten this book finished, much less published.

Jim lives in historic Alexandria, VA with his wife, son, and several crazy cats. He’s pretty sure he hasn’t seen any ghosts around town. Might just have to look harder. And he has eaten at Haute Dogs and the Dairy Godmother, and strongly recommends you do the same next time you’re in town. Tell them Rachel sent you.
