If you enjoyed this book, or any of my books, you need to thank Jason Pinter. Jason, the brilliant mind behind Polis Books brought Donne to print and then saved him off the scrap heap two years ago. Without Polis Books, Donne would have gone away like a lot of other private detectives. I am so happy he’s back on the page, and for that I am so thankful for Jason and Polis Books.
My wonderful agent Allan Guthrie is also to thank, for early read-throughs, smart advice, and a shoulder to lean on.
No one can get by without good friends: Sarah Weinman, Duane Swierczynski, Bryon Quertermous, Jay Stringer, Russell McLean, Chuck Wendig, Chris and Katrina Holm, Bill Cameron, Thomas Pluck, Angel Colon, Hector Acosta, Dan and Kate Malmon, and Alex Segura. To everyone else in the mystery community too. You’ve always been there for a helping hand and Twitter pep talks.
And, of course, the family. I am forever in Carol and Martin White’s debt—you know because they’re my parents. I also thank Thomas White, Jessica Schupp, Eleanore Richard, Thomas Richard, Fred Aguilera, Kristen Richard Aguilera, and Daniel and Brandon Aguilera. Thank you for the support.
To my readers, I hope you enjoyed this book. And all of the other ones. Thank you.
And finally Erin and Ben White. I love you. Thank you for being there for me.
