Nancy Varian Berberick Prisoner of Haven

Dedication

It’s my great pleasure to thank a group of talented Albuquerque writers who welcomed me to town and to their writer’s group: Pati Nagle (who writes as P.G. Nagle), Joan Saberhagen (who writes as Joan Spicci), Neal Singer, Alan Lattimore, Sally Gwylan and—always!—Doug Clark. Collectively, they are the Plot Busters, and without their excellent suggestions, good cheer and enthusiasm, Prisoner of Haven would not have taken the shape it now has.

Thanks also to Becca Clark and Jonathan Clark for giving me The Beauty of the Rain, the lovely album by Dar Williams. Until I heard this CD, Prisoner of Haven didn’t have a soundtrack, as most of my books do. Halfway through my first hearing of “Mercy of the Fallen,” not only did the book have a soundtrack, it seemed to me that I could hear Usha’s own voice in the lyrics.
