ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This book came out of nowhere and surprised me and everyone around me. I want to thank all those who helped me while I was writing it. In particular I’d like to thank my partner Rod Edmond for his continuing love and support. My family have always been my biggest fans and I am so grateful for all their encouragement and love. Thanks to Mum, Couze, Sam, Hari, Nia, Ivy, Gordian and Ruth. I’m very grateful for all my wonderful friends, colleagues and students, particularly those who read and commented on my manuscript. Particular thanks are due to Amy Sackville, Simon Trewin, Sarah Parfitt, Katie Szyszko, Jennie Batchelor, David Flusfeder, Christina Clover, Charlotte Hanson, Nikki Bullock, Sue Swift and Alice Bates. Big thanks also to Teri Johns, who keeps me organised and sane.

I’d also like to thank my brilliant editor, Francis Bickmore, and everyone at Canongate, particularly Vicki Rutherford and Lucy Zhou, and Lorraine McCann for the wonderful copy-edit. Thank you also to my amazing agents, Cathryn Summerhayes and Luke Speed. I’m extremely excited to be working with Patrick Walters, Jamie Laurenson and Maria Nicholson at See-Saw Films to develop this book into a TV series. Thanks so much to all at See-Saw for having faith in my vision.

I am very lucky to have some brilliant supporters on Patreon. I’d like to thank all my patrons, but in particular, Sherlock Bones, Katie Visser, Gareth Watts, Kelly Shorter, Katharine Rivett, Evelina Pecciarini, Kathy McLusky, Jim Cappio, Andrew Leader, Amanda Beasley, Charlie Phillips, Devon Dunlap, Joe Butler, Marguerite Croft, Rob Ellis (who also provided a splendid proof-read for which I am very grateful) and, of course, Sarah Barnett and Glen.
