Where the Moon Isn't (26 page)
Thank you to Ellie Gee, for helping me explore Matthew’s sketches. And to the artist, Charlotte Farmer, who has brought them to life in these pages.
I am hugely indebted to my literary agent Sophie Lambert of Tibor Jones & Associates, whose guidance – both on and off the page – was invaluable; to my editor, Louisa Joyner, and the wonderful team at HarperFiction, who turned my hopes of a book into a book; and to Nichole Argyres and the team at SMP, who with such care helped to shape this US edition.
Lastly, mostly, Emily Parker. For all of the endless reasons, this novel is dedicated to you.
This is a work of fiction. All of the characters, organizations, and events portrayed in this novel are either products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously.
