There are two very different sides to writing these books: one is uncompromisingly solitary, while the other is social and collaborative. I enjoy both-locking myself away with my characters and getting lost in their worlds; and bouncing ideas and plot threads off friends and colleagues along the way. Both sides feed each other, and I’m lucky to have a great bunch of people around me for the latter.
For this book, I’d particularly like to thank Jessica Horvath, Jemima Forrester, and Jon Wood for their inspired editorial guidance. I’d also like to thank my friends and agents old and new, Eugenie Furniss, Jay Mandel, Michael Carlisle, and Richard Pine.
