Copyright

With heartfelt thanks for their suggestions and input: authors Robin D. Owens, Susan Grant, Stacey Klemstein, and Anne Aguirre, and my reader/crit partners Nancy Gramm, Donna Kuhn, Michelle Williamson, and Lynne “Liberry Lady” Welch.

As always, to Daq and Doozy, fur all your help. And to Jaime Bernadino Warren—one of the first people to “meet” Theo Petrakos—and her dad, Rob Bernadino, who after all these years still find me amusing.

Acknowledgments

This author gratefully acknowledges the assistance of:

Sergeant Steve Huskisson of the Plantation (FL) Police Department; Detective Sergeant Scott Peterson of the Collier County (FL) Sheriff’s Office; Joel Reyes, former Hialeah (FL) Police Officer; and Deputy Sheriff Bob Cooley (VA), Valor55, GoDirectly2Jail, and other law-enforcement personnel on the Officer.com and RealPolice.net forums…who answered an author’s constant questions with such detail, patience, and good humor. Their assistance has been invaluable. Any sense of law-enforcement authenticity in this book is fully their doing, and for that I’m grateful beyond words. Any errors in police procedure you may find are no reflection of their expertise but rather of the author’s stubbornness to have the characters and the plot go her way. God bless you all, and keep you and yours safe out there.

May guardian angels always watch your six.
