What a year we are going through. Although we’re only three months into 2020 as I write this, it feels like we’ve lived a thousand years of fires and disease. No matter how it turns out, it will be a year of lessons. Thank you to those who’ve reached out and supported others. We really are all in this together and acts of kindness will get us through.
Thank you to everyone at Allen & Unwin, especially Susannah Chambers for your constant encouragement, and to Jodie Webster and Hilary Reynolds for taking on the challenge of bringing this book into the world. It’s been lovely working with you. Thanks too to Jo Hunt for coming on this three-book journey with me and designing the amazing covers that invite readers in. I’ve loved all of them.
