The Mistake
Page 29
Thanks again to my agents, Alexis Hurley and Kim Witherspoon, for their confidence and persistence – and patience!
This novel couldn’t have been written without the financial assistance provided by the Australian Postgraduate Award I was fortunate to receive, and I’d like to thank the University of New England for ongoing support.
As ever, heartfelt thanks are due to my family – who make it all worthwhile.
The Mistake is a work of fiction. The characters and events depicted in this novel are fictitious, and any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental
