  A big thanks to my writing group, including Nick Cross, Penny Schenk, Nicki Thornton and Jo Wyton for reading endless variations of the first chapter. Particular thanks to Amy Butler Greenfield and Sally Poyton who read the whole thing. Also thanks to Teri Terry for being there. There have been many people in SCBWI who offered friendship and encouragement along the way. You all helped me on the days where it seemed there was so far to travel.

  Thanks to my mum and dad, and my sister, whose enthusiasm has given me such a boost. Thanks to my children for sharing this with me and for keeping my feet on the ground. Most of all, thanks to James for being prepared to live with someone who doesn’t realise that dinner needs cooking, and who walks into the kitchen and starts a conversation with: “Well, if Laney doesn’t realise until it’s too late then everything will reach a climax in the next chapter…”
