To my Beta Force, who are always honest and kind at the same time.
To my Street Force, who support me and my writing with such enthusiasm.
To Sharon Nankervis, for inspiring my story.
B. Ottenbrite coined the phrase “Six-foot-eight and worth the climb” while in college, and it has struck me as funny to this very day.
To all of the wonderful professionals whom I called on to get the details right, especially: B. Boswell, my search and rescue team, Chesterfield EMS, VCU LifeEvac, and the NYC FBI. Please note: this is a work of fiction, and while I always try my best to get all of the details correct, there are times when it serves the story to go slightly to the left or right of perfection. Please understand that any mistakes or discrepancies are my authorial decision making alone and sit squarely on my shoulders.
Thank you to my family.
I send my love and thanksgiving to my husband, who is unswerving in his support. Finding the right words to express my gratitude is outside of my abilities. Maybe new words will have to be created…
And of course, thank YOU for reading my stories. I’m smiling joyfully as I type this. I so appreciate you!
