I would like to thank my collaborators, especially Chris Morgan, for sharing his unbelievable story with me, and Dr. Michael Teague for sharing his expertise and insights. I would also like to thank the Raleigh Police Department and the Wake County District Attorney’s Office for their professionalism and their assistance. I thank WRAL-TV for allowing me to cover this very fascinating story and giving me the resources to do it right.

I would like to thank the Millers for sharing Eric with me and most of all for giving me their blessings to write this book.

To my agent, Sharlene Martin—for your constant support and your tireless pursuit to make sure this story got published. To Shannon Jamieson Vazquez, my editor, for her hard work, patience, and understanding.

To my photographer, aka “work husband,” Chad, thanks for the title and for putting up with me while I was writing and promoting two books. And to my real husband, Grif, my daughters, and my parents, thanks for always believing in me.
