He hung his towel over the railing and slipped the sandals off. Then he walked out to the end of the dock and jumped in.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

THANK YOU!

Naively, I thought that publishing books would get easier over time, that anxiety would decrease with each publication. I was wrong. It only gets worse. Which is why the massive amount of support I receive from readers and collaborators becomes more and more valuable.

Thank you to Dorthe Vejsig at the Copenhagen district attorney’s office; Klaus Bo from Dead and Alive Projects; Thorvaldsens Museum; and Ernst Jonas Bencard, professor of forensic medicine; Hans Petter Hougen; Claus Vilsen and Trekroner fort caretaker Hans Poul Petersen; Peter Cummings; Jens Borregaard from the Technical and Environmental Administration; and Cathrine Raben Davidsen.

To ARC for the tour of the plant and for putting up with all my questions. Special thanks to process engineer Jørgen Bøgild Johnsen. I hope you will pardon my fanciful treatment of the incineration process, and I accept full responsibility for exaggerations and murderous machinations.

Thank you to everyone in my ring corner: Salomonsson Agency, especially my agent, Federico Ambrosini, and to all the amazing people at Scout Press: Jackie Cantor, Jessica Roth, Abby Zidle, Jennifer Long, and my dear friend Jennifer Bergstrom.

Also my profound thanks to Sysse Engberg, Anne Mette Hancock, and Sara Dybris McQuaid for feedback and support. To publisher, editor, and friend Birgitte Franch: without you, no books—it’s as simple as that. And last but in every sense first: Timm and Cassius, when it comes to you guys, no amount of thanks is enough. You’re everything to me.
