As always, a big thank you to my family for putting up with my “disappearance” when I was still physically in the room. Thanks to my readers who have waited patiently for this second book of the trilogy. The third is already written so should follow shortly. Thank you to my beta readers Leslie and Denis Brown; I value your opinion. To my Creative Editor, Ron Bagliere, whose 30 years of writing and editing knowledge helped me to see where my story needed improvement. Thank you to Next Chapter; I continue to look forward to this and other published works.
