ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This book would not exist were it not for my agent, Deborah Hofmann of the David Black Agency. She believed in the idea from the beginning and has been tireless in her support and encouragement. She has been a terrific agent, yet so much more. Her editing and storytelling instincts are superb, and they have made me a better writer. She is my friend as well as my agent.
And I am grateful to Anna Michels of Sourcebooks, my steady navigator from the start. She is that rare editor who sees the big picture and the tiny details that go into shaping a manuscript. Her questions and suggestions have been on the mark every time.
Finally, there is my wife, Rita, without whom my life would not be worth living. She, too, has been encouraging and supportive. As I say in my dedication, she is truly my rock and my light.
