Silent War
Page 44
Acknowledgement
This is the right place to acknowledge the responsibility that The Waverley Bar, St Mary’s Street, Edinburgh, bears for Charlie Bassett’s story. The Waverley and its jazz, Ean its owner, the captivating and mysterious bar staff, and my gang, The Waverley Writers, all contribute unconsciously to Charlie’s voice. He is honoured to know them.
DAVID FIDDIMORE was born in 1944 in Yorkshire and is married with two children. He worked for five years at the Royal Veterinary College before joining HM Customs and Excise, where his work included postings to the investigation and intelligence divisions.
