2.2Mb size Format: txt, pdf, ePub

I’ve been blessed with a lot of supportive friends in my life. First thanks always goes to Char Peery, who reads everything I write, and I mean everything. Multiple times even. Other readers include: Michael Bateman (an author and EMT who helped with the medical details - all mistakes are my own entirely), Eliza Nevin (who edited a much earlier version of this manuscript years ago, when it was under contract with Covenant Communications), Kate Seagrave (fellow Oxford graduate and real, live British person - not to mention a lifelong friend), and Melanie Goldmund (who found a typo missed by all others and was kind enough to send me a glowingly supportive email the morning before I began transferring this book into Kindle format).

Thanks guys, for everything.
