ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I WOULD LIKE TO START by saying THANK YOU for reading my first novel. I have been writing nonfiction for twelve years, and have a lot of stories that would not necessarily be great nonfiction books. Telling them as fiction gives me the opportunity to tell the stories with new characters.
Since this was my first novel, I spent over a year writing, re-writing, editing, re-editing, and crafting a story that I liked, and hoped others would enjoy.
I would like to thank some people who contributed to the final work you see here. As always, my wonderful wife Michelle, and my two beautiful children were forced to miss me from time to time when my head was in my story.
Thanks to Jonathan Shaw for reading an early copy, and giving me constructive ideas on how to change the story
