TRADE REFERENCES
I’d like to thank my agent, Dr. Maxine Thompson, for her patience and hard work. Without her input and suggestions this novel wouldn’t have been published. She is an expert in her field with her own internet radio show as well as being an accomplished author. I couldn’t have dreamed of a better agent.
