The Girl Remains (Detective Corban)
Page 31
Of course my biggest thanks must be saved for the team that makes it all happen: Jacinta Di Mase, Bev Cousins and everyone at Penguin Random House Australia – I’m still pinching myself that you selected me to be on your list.
And to my husband John, who has always had such unwavering belief in me for reasons I’m yet to discover. I know you ride the ups and downs more than anyone. And who knows? One day I might be able to write a novel without having a meltdown. It wasn’t this time, and it probably won’t be the next, but I am eternally grateful to have you there with me. Love you x.
