Trojan Horse

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I’d like to thank John Lambert, David Cross, Frank Simorjay, and Scott Field — colleagues of mine at Microsoft — for reviewing drafts of Trojan Horse and providing valuable input based on their real-world experiences with cyber espionage. Ron Watkins provided me great input on the plot and character development and made helpful reviews of numerous drafts.

I’m grateful to Kevin Mitnick for endorsing the book with his foreword and to Mikko Hypponen for his blurb. I’ve learned a lot from both of them and am honored to have their names associated with Trojan Horse.

My thanks also go to my agent, Ann Collette, from the Helen Rees Literary Agency, who helped usher the book through the publication process. I owe thanks to Peter Joseph, my editor at Thomas Dunne Books, for believing in a sequel, for the insightful feedback he gave in his reviews, and making sure everything was covered for the successful publication and launch for Trojan Horse.

Finally, I want to again thank my wife, the real-life Daryl, for her continued support of my indulgence as a fiction author.
