Lies in High Places
Page 25
One day, frustrated that her favorite authors weren’t writing fast enough, an insane thought crossed her mind. “Maybe I could write a novel?”
Silly, naïve, downright ludicrous. But she did it. She plotted and planned and got 80,000 words on the page. That manuscript lives permanently in the back of a closet. But the writing bug had bitten.
Lies in High Places is her debut novel. Dana lives in Chicago and Florida with her husband and her kitty, Isabel, happily avoiding temperatures below fifty.

Acknowledgments
Writing a novel involves months, sometimes years, of plotting, planning, and fretting over every word, and mine was no different. It also involves the support and dedication of good friends and loyal fans.
Many thanks to my writing pals Kari Bovee, Shelly Blanton-Stroud, Pam Campbell, and Liz McCullough. They suffered through my horrid first drafts and blinding insecurities. Terrific writers all, watch for their books.
Thanks to editors Nancy LaFever and Natasha Simons for tightening my prose and my story.
To my boys, Alex and Zach, I hope you live dreams of your own. And finally, to my husband Theo, thank you for having the courage to become the man you were meant to be.
