Dark Ink

by Gary Kemble

  ‘There’s something you’re not telling me,’ he said. He looked at Bec.

  She smiled. ‘My boss called just before. He says the London job is mine.’

  Harry forced a smile. ‘That’s . . . that’s great news. When do you leave?’

  She gripped his hand. ‘As soon as you’re ready to come with me.’

  ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

  Publishing a book is a team effort, and I have some fantastic people in my corner.

  Thank you to:

  The irrepressible Angela Meyer and the Echo team, along with editor Kylie Mason.

  Alex Adsett – agent extraordinaire.

  Tom Dullemond for another insightful beta read, and everyone who helped answer my weird and sometimes creepy research questions.

  My parents for always believing in me.

  My wife Amelia – you are my hero, now and always – and to Eamon and Aurora, who I find more amazing with each passing day.

  And special thanks to you, dear reader, for coming on this ride with me. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
