Huge thanks once again to Jane and to everyone at Lutyens and Rubinstein. To my superstar editors Hannah and Bella, and to Simon, Tilda and David. To Lauren and everyone at RHCP, and to cover wizards Alison and David. To all my wonderful supportive friends and colleagues, particularly Hugh for comments on the manuscript and Simon for trailer-making skills. A special thanks to Henry for his Latin expertise. And as ever, thanks to Mark, Verity and Katrina, who’ve read this book almost as many times as I have.
