AcknowledgementsI would like to take this opportunity to thank fellow Odyssey author, Tracy Joyce, who is always available to offer practical advice and pushed my first novel at markets all over Victoria. Thanks also to Michelle Lovi, editor and publisher at Odyssey Books, without whose support and enthusiasm for new authors, I would not be writing these acknowledgements in the first place. Finally, I would also like to thank my sister Kathy, my extended collection of parents—John and Sue, Sandra and Phil, Tom and Shirley—and close friends Michele, Karen, Lyn and Lynne for lifetimes of support, interest and love.
