Author’s Notes
This book was a labor of love during a time when real life changed for many of us. I’m thankful my book village could still help me wrangle the words into better shape despite everything going on.
Nora Sakavic, for all her support and friendship and listening to me spaz about moving amidst a pandemic while trying to finish this book.
Leslie Copeland, for being that guiding light when I hit that writing wall and wanted to chuck it out the window, but also for being a wonderful friend.
Lily Morton, for never steering me wrong, for always being there on the other side of the world and the other side of a text message. You’ve become one of my best friends.
May Archer, who encouraged me so much with this book and cackled in glee rather than horror when I first told her my plans for Paris. Thank you for being such an amazing friend.
Karen Harroch, who was kind enough to read the Paris chapters to ensure I got bits of French culture and Paris locales correct. Thank you so much.
Helen Juliet, who was super sweet and took time out of her busy writing schedule to ensure the London chapters read like London as opposed to the Moon. Thank you!
Bear, who continues to be an amazing, brilliant friend. I’m so glad you’re in my life.
Last but not least: to my readers. Thank you so much for enjoying the worlds I get to write about so that I can write more. All of you are amazing, and I wouldn’t get to do this without you.
London and Paris are two of my favorite cities, and I’ve always wanted to set a story in those locations. I took liberties with foreign police work and agencies in this story. I don’t work in either field, I am not English nor French, and I tried my best to blend both into the world I created as best as possible.
I would be thrilled and grateful if you would consider reviewing On the Wings of War on Amazon or Goodreads. I appreciate all honest reviews, positive or negative. Reviews definitely help my books get seen, so thank you!
