My thanks are due, as always, to everyone at HarperCollins for all their support, hard work and talent; and especially to my editorial team, Kimberley Young and Claire Palmer. The Show has been a huge team effort and I am immensely grateful for all your help, advice and input. There would be no book without you. Thanks also to my fabulous agents, Luke Janklow and Hellie Ogden, and to everyone at Janklow & Nesbit. And of course to my family, for their love and support, especially to my darling daughter Sefi and my husband Robin. It is ridiculous how much I love being your wife.

The Show is dedicated to my life-long friend Zanna Hooper. Zans, thank you for all your hospitality, generosity and kindness over all these years. I am so incredibly glad I met you.
