Garden of Death (31 page)

acknowledgments

No author is an island.
Completing a book is a difficult task and it helps to have family and friends to lean on. In particular, I'd like to thank my mom, Marion Fiedler, my sister Val Boergesson, my nephews Jake and Alex, my friends Joann Tamin and Cindy Clifford, and, of course, my dachshunds Holmes and Wallander and my cats Tinker and Tuppence (all named after fictional sleuths!). For writing support, I'm especially grateful to Ellen Steiber, fellow cozy author Anne Canadeo, and my Killer Hobbies blog sisters: Tracey Webber, Linda Johnston, Monica Ferris, and Betty Hechtman. Thank you Ann Collette, of the Helen Rees Agency, for going the extra mile. Special thanks go to Natasha Simons, copy editor Faren Bachelis for making my book shine, and the rest of the team at Gallery Books for marketing and promoting my natural remedies mystery series. My gratitude also goes to my teachers in holistic health: Brigitte Mars, A.H.G., Jacob Teitelbaum, MD, Suzy Cohen, rPh, and Deborah Wiancek, ND. Finally, I'd like to thank all the readers who have enjoyed my books and told their friends, cozy blogs and websites, librarians, reviewers, and booksellers. If there was a real Nature's Way Market & Café, I'd have you all over for an organic smoothie!
