Death of A High Maintenance Blonde (Jubilant Falls Series Book 5) (23 page)

Acknowledgements

As always, my thanks go to that supportive team of professionals, friends and family who make this journey possible.

For Mary McFarland and Doug Savage, who aren’t afraid to tell me when I write crap and who guide me, sometimes gently, sometimes not, toward a better book.

For Paul Schaffer, copy editor extraordinaire, who treated my comma deficiencies, misspellings and odd sentence constructions like the grammar professional he is.

For Greg, Scott and Becky who believe in me.

But most of all, this book is for all the journalists who live every day with the horrors they’ve seen and their efforts to make us all more aware.
