I am very fortunate to be published by such a supportive team of people. Thanks to everyone at Random House, in particular Larissa Edwards, Elizabeth Cowell and Patrick Mangan – your insights improved the story immeasurably. Thanks also to Tobie Mann and Emma Caddy for championing the book, and to Debbie Clement for the beautiful cover designs of both my novels.
To Tara Wynne: you are a steadfast support in these interesting times, and I know how very lucky I am to have you on my side.
To Jen Shelton: thank you for taking such good care of my baby girl that I haven’t had to worry about her while I’ve been working. To Punita Mandalia: thank you for bringing my imagination to life with your talent, let’s collaborate more often! To Julie Cripps, Claire Moritz and Louise Clarke: I really appreciate your friendship and practical help. And to Kirsty Aldridge: many thanks for your time and expertise.
To Marian and Ray, your unwavering support is inspiring. Thank you for everything you have done for all of us over the past year or so. You know how much you have helped to bring this book to life.
And finally, to my husband Matt and my daughter Hannah. When it comes to you two, thank you doesn’t even begin to cover it.
