Angel Dance (Danny Logan Mystery #1) (46 page)

To Gabe Robinson, for helping to identify and bring out the real story hidden in the jumble of words that was my original effort.

To Brynn Warriner and Carrie Wicks, for helping me take what I (mistakenly) hoped was a finished manuscript to a manuscript that now really is finished—a humbling but necessary experience. Brynn and Carrie both work in Seattle; they also provided sound advice and assistance on specifics of the novel’s Seattle setting.

To Ellen Johnson, Jennifer Norton, Liz Spiller, and Rebecca Eli, for reading early versions of
Angel Dance
and providing valuable feedback.

Finally, to my wife Michelle, for her constant support in this and all my other endeavors.

About the Author

 

M.D. Grayson is the author of Angel Dance – the first of the Danny Logan mystery series. He lives on an island near Seattle with his wife Michelle and their three German shepherds.

Before becoming a full-time writer, Mr. Grayson worked in the construction industry, as an accountant for six l-o-n-g weeks (square peg-round hole), and as a piano player on the Las Vegas strip. When he’s not writing, he loves zooming about on two wheels-bicycles and motorcycles alike. In addition, he’s a pilot, a boater, and an accomplished musician who’s always ready for a jam session!
