Josh Stallings and Nancy Matuszak have earned hazardous duty pay for reading multiple drafts of The Hidden Things, and since I pay in affection and admiration, they should prepare to be snowed under with love.

And I am lost without the advice and understanding of these brilliant writers: Lou Berney, Tana French, Elizabeth Little, Nadine Nettmann, Graeme Cameron, Brad Parks, Coleen Valentino, and Mark Pryor. Thank you, all the way thank you.

Finally, the other group of people who make me glow with gratitude—readers. Thank you for wanting stories. It’s not a small thing. It makes us better. I believe that. And I am one of you, too.
