Acknowledgments

I’m grateful to the people in my life who have helped make this book possible. To my parents, who always encourage me to keep going. To my early readers, Sam Kuypers, David Perlmutter, Julio Torres, Matthew McLernon, Kitt Johnson, Joe Immen, Jamie Pellegrin, and Ahmad Abdulla, whose feedback and support kept me on course. To Saketh Nimmagadda and Matt Jordan for delivering a cover I could never create on my own.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

Special thanks to Silvester Zheku, who rekindled a fire that I thought had long been extinguished.

Windfall is the product of that fire.

Dedication

Windfall is dedicated to the late Carol Ginsburg. Thanks for the books, Nanny.
