Acknowledgments

Maine Warden Service Lieutenant Pat Dorian’s comments that I might find this story interesting led me to Miramichi, New Brunswick. This book would not have been possible without the generosity of the Miramichi police, especially Deputy Chief Brian Cummings, Chief Paul Fiander, Constable Dewey Gillespie, Sergeant Jody Whyte, Retired Chief Earl Campbell and Greg Scott. Maria Tanasichuk’s family and friends were invaluable in helping me understand her, especially her sister, Sharon Carroll, and dear friends Darlene Gertley and Cindy Richardson.

I have also had the privilege of learning about search and rescue dogs and cadaver dog training from the Maine Warden Service, especially from Specialist Deb Palman and Warden Roger Guay, and about mapping from Lieutenant Kevin Adam. Maine Search and Rescue Dogs (MESARD) volunteers, including Cindy Attwood, Jennifer Fisk, Michele Fleury, Spencer Fuller, Leslie Howe and Nancy Troubh, were kind enough to invite me to observe their training, as was the Warden Service K-9 unit.

I have been well advised.
