  Thank you to my husband for more than one night of sitting down and debating this plot to death. Thank you Mister Jim for helping me weed out those pesky Americanisms and everything else that caught your careful eye. Thank you to Nora who really pumped me up about this dark horse of a story, and for loving Judith, who probably needed it more than anyone else. And thank you to all the dead people who look the other way when I write silly things. You know I love you.
