ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

You’d be amazed how much work goes into bringing a novel to life, so I’d like to take a moment to acknowledge all those who have helped make My Brother’s Secret what it is. Thanks to my agent, Carolyn, for all her honest words and advice, and to Bella for her fantastic editorial work. I can’t stress enough how brilliant everyone is at Chicken House – their passion for good stories is unequalled and I have felt well and truly supported every step of the way – so thanks to Barry for making it all happen, and to Rachel L and Rachel H and Elinor for all their hard work. Thanks also to Tina (who never seems to rest) and to Laura and Becky. Big thanks have to go to my good friend Graeme who has been helping me with promotional materials for the past few years. My biggest thanks, though, is for my first readers and best supporters – my wife and children. Thanks for always being there and for putting up with me when I’m lost in Danworld – which is most of the time.

I’d also like to acknowledge the bravery of those who resisted.
