To Geoff Garrett—you have been a true partner. Without your unwavering support and commitment this book simply would not have been possible.
Then there is also a very special group of people who supported me throughout this multi-year journey—from the highest highs down to the darkest depths, then back again. Without them I would have lost any semblance of sanity. They are, in reverse alphabetical order, Larry Zerner (you're first at last!), Joel Vendette, Adrienne King, Geoff Garrett and Daniel Farrands. And for his unwavering enthusiasm and support in the launching of this electronic edition and the long-overdue return to Crystal Lake that it required, thank you to Gareth Dimelow, who taught me that sometimes going backward is the way forward.
To my agent, Garrett Hicks. You have changed my life by believing in this fledgling author, and never second-guessed my choice in projects or subject matter. Words cannot express the gratitude I feel.
Finally, I would like to thank my friends and family. Few likely will ever understand this most strange obsession of mine, but all continue to love me regardless. I am truly blessed.
