  Acknowledgments

  Thanks, as ever, to all those who helped make Death Parts Us happen.

  Much of the book was written while finally trying to plan and organise a permanent move to the Black Isle. This has proved as challenging as major life-changes always do (don't be surprised if an unreliable house-buyer appears as a victim in my next book…). But I'd like to express my thanks and appreciation to all those on the Black Isle and in the surrounding area who've shown us typical hospitality and friendship while we've been trying to make this happen. And I hope they'll forgive me for yet again turning their beautiful landscape into a hot-bed of fictional serial killing.

  As always, I want also to thank all those wonderful people at Bloodhound Books for their professionalism and enthusiasm—Sarah, Sumaira and Lesley in particular for their various input and support. And of course, to Betsy and Fred for simply being the best publishers around.

  Finally, thanks to Helen for her input on the earlier drafts (including helping me to resolve at least one major plan conundrum), for the moral support, for the wine, and for everything else.
