But now that you are here, now that you’ve stuck by me and Xana to the end, please join us in thanking all the wonderful people who helped make her journey possible.
First and foremost:
My agent, Paul Lucas, and my editor, Kate Miciak. Kate led me and Xana to Paul who led us back to Kate. They are great people; more important, they are good people.
The team at Alibi: Dennis Ambrose, Kim Cowser, Laura Jorstad, Heidi Lilly, Julia Maguire, Katie Rice, Matt Schwartz, Gina Wachtel. They found a way to bring Xana the readership that she deserves. I know I could never have done it.
My gang of Atlantans: Amber Brooks, Laura Crawley, Michael Diebert, Charles Fox, Neeley Gossett, Deborah Hull, Melissa McNamara, Gregg Murray, Andy Rogers, John Roper, Ellen Savage, Katherine Seidenberg, Erin Shepherd Murray, Lydia Ship, and Ted Wadley.
My gang of non-Atlantans: Abby Cooper, Amy Durant, Kristy Hamer, Meredith Haring, Meghan Hewitt, Aubrey Klink, David Krasner, Mariya Marvakova, Jen McGuire, Deric McNish, John Russo, Maia Russo, Heather Shoemaker, Brooke Tarnoff, Devon White, Jordan D. White, and Jenny Williamson.
My gang of writers: Liz Berry, Steve Berry, Allison Brennan, Robert Gregory Browne, Carla Buckley, Pam Callow, Rebecca Cantrell, Joelle Charbonneau, Jo Cooper, Hilary Davidson, Karen Dionne, JT Ellison, Margery Flax, Steve Flax, Daniel Friedman, Michelle Gagnon, Shane Gericke, Jon Land, Allison Leotta, Rebecca Maizel, Rick Mofina, Chantelle Osman, Andrew Peterson, Stefanie Pintoff, Stephen Jay Schwartz, Kelli Stanley, and Michael Wiley.
My gang of kin: Dad, Heather, Seth, Noah, Shiela, Kelly, Michele, Mitch, Valeria, Benji, Abby, Nat-Nat, Oliver, Ava, Matt, Heidi, Nicole, and Kaleb.
And finally, thank you to my mother. All novels are conversations an author has with himself or herself; this one was a conversation about my mom.
Peace be unto her.
