We have to believe, Kaylie had said.

Author's Note
My thanks to all the people who helped in the preparation and production of the original print edition of Stealing Faces, including Joseph Pittman, senior editor at NAL; Michaela Hamilton, associate publisher; Laurie Parkin, sales manager; Carolyn Nichols, executive director; Louise Burke, publisher; and my literary agent, Jane Dystel. Their support, feedback, and energetic assistance were invaluable in making the book a reality.
Readers are invited to visit my website at www.michaelprescott.net, where you’ll find information on my other books, as well as my email address, book reviews, and more. In a section called “Stuff that Got Cut,” you can read a scene I left out of Stealing Faces, detailing some additional unpleasantness at the Hawk Ridge Institute.
