Acknowledgments

I am indebted to a great many people for seeing me through the birth of another novel:

To my critique partner, Kristy Kiernan; and my first readers—Elizabeth Graham, Maggie Dana, and Karen Abbott.

To Carrie Feron and Selina McLemore at HarperCollins, for wonderful support and the type of editorial guidance for which all writers hope.

To Seana Pope, for taking me under her wing and showing me New Hampshire, and for her many other tireless efforts on my behalf.

To Teresa Paradis, for answering my questions about the transport of PMU horses, and to all the volunteers at Live and Let Live Farm, for their hospitality and for sharing their stories with me. Special thanks to Heather Evans and Teresa Gladstone, who will recognize hints of their own horses herein.

To Margaret Odgers, for providing information about Nokotas.

To my writing group, who propped me up and
generally kept me going with consistent love and support.

To Emma Sweeney, agent extraordinaire.

And to Bob, whose contributions are too vast to enumerate.
