I would again like to thank Karina Berg Johansson and Adam Smith for their friendship and for wielding those red pens with abandon. Thank you to Stacy Brandenburg for the laughs and to Kim Turner for the ongoing support.

My thanks to Orville and Evelyn Roy, Suzanne Lanza, and Michele Moons for sharing their memories of the great city of Detroit. My thanks to my mother, Jeanette, for inspiring dedication and to my father, Norm, for being the first storyteller in my life. Supper continues to be late at my house and the laundry is never caught up, so, once again, thanks to Bill, Andrew, and Savanna for always understanding.

And finally, as I once worked in the corporate world, I know there are a great many people laboring on behalf of my books who I never get a chance to work with directly or to thank. So my thanks to all of you in sales, publicity, design, editing, distribution, inventory control, IT, HR, legal, finance, tax, manufacturing, and all other Penguin divisions I may have forgotten. And because I once was one… thank you to the accountants.
