For Walter Neumann,
whom I never had a chance to know
My special thanks are due to Graham Rust, for his vast knowledge of pacing, and his generosity in sharing it with me; to Dr. Romeo J. Vecht, who also gave me so much valuable
time; and to Sgt. Marjorie O’Dea of the Detective Division, Chicago Police Department, for her good humour, patience and expertise.
Grateful thanks also to Dr. Herman Ash, David W. Balfour, Howard Barmad, Carolyn Caughey, Sara Fisher, John Hawkins, Herta Norman, Dave Risley of London Zoo, the excellent and helpful staff of
the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Chicago, Helen and Neal Rose, Dr. Jonathan Tarlow and Sharon Tarlow, Michael Thomas, and Rae White.
