ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
There are many people without whom this book would not have been possible. Foremost, I would like to thank Richard Milner, my editor, for having faith in it over a long period of time, and for his enduring enthusiasm and wise counsel. Also at Quercus, David North for backing the project, and Josh Ireland for his tireless and expert work on the copy.
I am lucky to have an agent such as Peter Straus at Rogers, Coleridge and White, and to have been previously represented by Hannah Westland, who believed in me, and the book in its various incarnations, when others (including me) did not.
