Dedication

This book is for:

my husband, Edward, who, with his quiet support, makes mine the best of all possible worlds;

my editor, Ginjer Buchanan, who thought of me at the right time;

Tony and Luke Perkins, and Anthony, Theresa, and Sharri Everett - for whom I wish a better world;

Gil, in memoriam, the very best of cats;

And Amanda and Duncan, with sorrow and regret.
This in no way atones, but it's yours nonetheless.

First words

Patience had never been one of Devon Adair's strong suits.
