I cannot do what I do without the love and support of my wife, Nicola, who has to suffer the long bouts of silence and brooding fits when things aren’t going to plan. My aim in life is to be good to her as she is to me.
As always, my mother, Kathy, and mother-in-law, Sheila, proved to be excellent proofreaders and I thank them all for their help, and for having my wife and me.
It’s true that writing is a lonely business, which is why it’s nice to recieve a friendly email or call once in a while, or share a drink or three with other people who know what it’s like. My friends Peter Watt, David Rollins and Di Blacklock
are all wonderful people as well as brilliant writers, so go and buy their books.
Five books on, and it’s still hard for me to believe how lucky I was not only to be published, but to end up working with such a professional, friendly bunch of people at Pan Macmillan.
Thanks to Jane Wood and everyone at Quercus. Great to be working with you. And thanks to Isobel Dixon, my agent at Blake Friedmann.
And, most of all, since you’ve made it this far, thank you.
