I outkicked my coverage when I married the beautiful Dixie Dale Davis fourteen years ago, and I've been counting my lucky stars ever since. Dixie has been my rock along this writing journey, as well as a tremendous sounding board for storylines, characters, and ideas. I am so blessed to be able to share this adventure with her.
Our children-Jimmy, Bobby, and Allie-are my greatest joy. They inspire and teach me every day, and I'm so proud of them.
My parents, Randy and Beth Bailey, have helped in too many ways to count. My dad is a gifted storyteller in his own right, providing valuable feedback, and my mom, a retired schoolteacher, is a meticulous proofreader. Whenever I've needed something along this journey, the answer from Mom and Dad has been a resounding "yes." There aren't enough words to describe how much they mean to me.
My agent, Liza Fleissig, is a force of nature, and her dogged persistence is what every writer wishes for in an agent. I am so grateful for Liza and the entire LRA family.
Thanks to my editors, Kjersti Egerdahl and Clarence Haynes, for their ideas, insights, and expertise. Special thanks also to Alan Turkus, Jacque Ben-Zekry, Tiffany Pokorny, and my entire team at Thomas & Mercer.
A big thank-you to Julie Sch.o.e.rke, Marissa Curnette, and everyone at JKS Communications for the wonderful publicity they've generated for my work.
A huge shout-out to my friends Bill and Melanie Fowler, Rick Onkey, Mark Wittschen, Steve Shames, and Will Powell for reading a draft of the ma.n.u.script and sharing their ideas and encouragement.
My father-in-law, Dr. Jim Davis, provided an early read of the story, and his infectious positive energy has been a blessing. Doc and his wife, Janie, have also done much to promote my books.
My mother-in-law, Beverly Baca, has contributed countless hours to helping me and Dixie during this journey. Bev and her husband, Jerry, have given so much of their time and energy to a.s.sist us.
My brother, Bo Bailey, and his wife, Amy, have been great supporters and promoters of my dream.
I am grateful for my sisters-in law, Christi Davis League and Denise Davis Burroughs, who have lent their time and energy to attend and promote numerous book events.
My friend and fellow attorney Tom Castelli provided a tutorial on Tennessee criminal law procedure, which for an Alabama lawyer like me was invaluable.
Pulaski residents Chris McGill and Willa Lamb spoke with me about the town's history and famous landmarks, which was a huge help in the writing of this story.
Joe and Foncie Bullard from Point Clear, Alabama have been amazing friends and supporters of my writing career, and I'm so grateful for them.
Finally, a special thanks to everyone at my law firm, Lanier Ford Shaver & Payne PC.
