The power of music to inspire and to change lives, even across the centuries, is at the heart of
Playing with Fire.
I’m grateful to all the people who brought the gift of music into my life: my parents, who knew I would someday thank them for all those long and tedious hours of practice on the piano and violin; my music teachers, who patiently endured all my sour notes; and my Maine jam session buddies, with whom I’ve shared many a raucous night trading tunes. Musicians are the warmest, most generous people in the world, and I feel blessed to be part of their circle. In particular I thank Janet Ciano, who lovingly inspired a whole generation of string players; Chuck Markowitz, who shares my love of just fooling around on fiddles; and Heidi Karod, for being the very first to play
Incendio.
I’m grateful for the steadfast support from my literary agent, Meg Ruley, my editors Linda Marrow (Ballantine) and Sarah Adams (Transworld UK), and a publishing team that spans both sides of The Pond: Libby McGuire, Sharon Propson, Gina Centrello, Kim Hovey, Larry Finlay, and Alison Barrow. You are all a joy to work with!
Most of all, I thank my husband, Jacob, who has stood beside me through every high and low of my career. It’s a tough job being a writer’s spouse, and nobody does it better.
