Acknowledgements

I’m so grateful to everyone at Aria and to Caroline Ridding for believing in this book enough to make the dream come true.

I count myself a very lucky girl to have Ace Agent, Judith Murdoch at my side.

Thank you Bernadine Cafferkey (super sister) for enthusiastically reading the drafts and always keeping faith!

Thank you to my mother, Christine Cafferkey, for encouraging me to write, to write some more and not to stop – and that is only the start of where the thanks are due to you both!

Thank you to Sean, Roisin, Tomas and Cristin – for being inspirational, supportive, patient and just lovely, all of you! To James, you make everything just right.

Finally, thanks to you, the reader, for choosing my book, I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I’ve enjoyed writing it!
