ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Thanks to everyone who had a hand in dragging this book into the light.
To my agent, Sarah McKenzie, who took a chance on an unknown author; for her professionalism, her keen editorial eye, and our remarkable like-mindedness.
To Jo Mackay, Annabel Blay and the wonderful team at HarperCollins, for believing in the manuscript, backing it, and bettering it, every step of the way.
To my editor Kylie Mason whose scrupulous attention to detail was formidable, and always bang-on.
To J.P. Pomare, who reached out with words of encouragement, and saved the book from being shelved at the first hurdle.
And to my family, my tireless (and only) audience for more than a decade—thank you for your patience, passion and persistent praise.
