Acknowledgements A second book requires those who have to tolerate the author to be even more forbearing than the first book, as everything needs to be tested against earlier efforts. Accordingly, I must thank my family, the real Richard Kemp, Sue Gray, Heather Millican and a host of others who have read and read these pages. I must also thank my agent, Natasha Fairweather of AP Watt and my indefatigable editor, Susan Watt. Skegby February, 2010
