your endless support for my writing and for making me who I am (even if that means sending you five billion drafts of various stories since the age of eight!). Writing a novel can be an exhilarating, exciting, rewarding process, but it can also be a lonely one. You never failed to let me know what you enjoyed about my work, and your constant belief in my writing was instrumental in getting to the finish line. Other family members – Deirdre, Hilda, Ben, James – were really helpful in reading and giving feedback on the novel’s later drafts. I would also like to thank my niece Izzy, who was born on the same day agents got back to me about Sixteen Horses. I hope you enjoy reading this when you are capable of reading!

Finally I’d like to thank Dr Charlotte Mahood, veterinary surgeon, real-life Cooper, for all your animal advice, emotional support, writing feedback, patience and love throughout the development of this novel. When we met in 2012, I wasn’t a professional writer, you weren’t a vet, I couldn’t click my fingers and you couldn’t whistle. While you’re still working on the last one, achieving three out of four dreams isn’t bad at all, and we have our whole lives to figure out the rest.

Readers – the book you have just read couldn’t exist without all the people in these acknowledgements. If you enjoyed the book and ever meet them, please direct your praise in their direction.
