Lille and Ghent wish to thank Molly Gibb, a remarkable canine advocate, for her advice on all things canine in the books. The hounds love you! Any mistakes that have slipped in are all my fault (or my cat’s).
To my dear friend Laura Hodges, thank you for your careful edit, as well as advice and suggestions regarding clothing, jewelry, and more. Your books on Chaucer’s symbolic use of clothing are my bibles.
To Joyce Gibb, thank you for being my early warning system when I’m veering off the clear path of the story.
To Mary Morse, thank you for a clearheaded edit despite being busy with your own research sabbatical in Paris.
To Jennifer Weltz, thank you for being my literary agent, a fierce advocate for my characters, a reader with a gift for calling out missed opportunities in a story, and the one who has been an enthusiastic supporter of Kate from the moment she strode into my life.
I count myself most fortunate in my partner, Charlie Robb, who supports my work in countless ways. I thank you particularly for creating the beautiful maps for my books. You are a wonder, my love.
