  AMONG the many people who helped me over the years I spent researching and
  writing this book, I would like to thank, first of all, Suzanne Gluck at
  William Morris Endeavor. Suzanne is the best agent on the planet, and it is an
  immense privilege and pleasure to work with her. I am also most fortunate to
  have John Glusman as my editor. John has supported this project in every
  possible way, and I am grateful for his many outstanding suggestions.
  
  
  It is also my pleasure to thank someone else whose help has been
  extraordinarily beneficial: Françoise Gicquel, _Commissaire Divisionnaire_ of
  the Service de la Mémoire et des Affaires Culturelles, who granted me access
  to the entire Petiot dossier, which has been classified and locked away since
  the discovery of the crimes. Thanks to her support, I was able to read the
  Brigade Criminelle’s original reports, interrogations, and searches, not to
  mention Petiot’s own personal notebooks and some of his poetry. I am forever
  grate
