      And through the loneliest part of the journey – the writing – I was kept going by the enthusiasm of Camilla Hornby at Curtis Brown, the skill of Poppy Hampson at Chatto & Windus and the vision of her former colleague, Alison Samuel, and the special support of Margaret Hussey, Richard Foreman, Tim and Jacqueline Parsonson, Ruth Fuller-Sessions, Sally Stephens, Stanley and Lisette Butcher and Patrick and Marilyn Flanagan.

      Jane, Kit and Tess were with me every step. Their love gave me reason both to go the extra mile and to relish coming home.
