Copyright
This is a work of fiction. Any references to real
people, living or dead, real events, businesses, organizations and
localities are intended only to give the fiction a sense of reality
and authenticity. All names, characters, places and incidents are
either the product of the author’s imagination or are used
fictitiously, and their resemblance, if any, to real-life
counterparts is entirely coincidental. The only exceptions to this
are the characters of Julie Bultitude, Zoë Butler, Graeme Danby,
Susanna Frayn, Dave Goulding, Allan Guthrie, Ian Haffenden and
Fiona Martin, who have given their express permission to be
fictionalized in this volume. All behaviour, history, and character
traits assigned to these individuals have been designed to serve
the needs of the narrative and do not necessarily bear any
resemblance to the real people.
