Finally, much gratitude as always to my family, who put up with all the ups and downs of the writer’s life with such good grace. Particular shout-outs for my parents, Shirley and Trevor Bell, for taking me to New Orleans when they did; my boyfriend, Neil Dayus, for keeping me supplied with whisky cocktails during edits; and my dear little Siamese cat, Suki, who is the very best at cuddles. Gold medals for everybody!
