I spent a week in Bangkok, where I was looked after by the author Stephen Leather, who took me to all sorts of locations, many of which I wasn’t allowed to mention in the book! He also accompanied me to the Thai kickboxing fight that is the basis of Chapter Eight. I also want to thank Justin Ractliffe, who showed me around Perth and Sydney during a lengthy book tour.
Joshua King, Alfie Faber, Max Packman-Walder and Emma Charatan all read the manuscript and gave me great notes and advice. Not for the first time, my son Cassian suggested some major changes.
Finally, my assistant Cat Taylor organized everything and then organized it again when I changed my mind. Justin Somper continues to be the guiding light behind much of Alex’s success. And my very lovely editor, Jane Winterbotham, spent hours trawling through some of the most painful notes ever to come out of a publishing house to ensure that all the dates and times make sense.
