The prison officers weren’t bad either (joking!).
Top of the list for putting up with me are my darling fiancée Amy and our beautiful daughter Billie. Every day we spend together makes this life worth living. Your love and support mean everything.
KK, Bradders and Helen each deserve a special cuddle too.
I will be forever grateful to Deirdre Nuttall for her faith in the original proposal, Tony Hannan for helping me to craft a gripping story and my agent, Martin Redfern of Diane Banks Associates, for his priceless input and belief. Huge thanks too to editorial director Ingrid Connell, editor Graham Coster and all the staff at publishers Pan Macmillan.
Now, to all of them and you I say: ‘Get behind your door.’
