HELEN PHIFER

lives in a small town called Barrow-in-Furness with her husband and five children. She has lived in the same town since she was born. It gets some bad press but really is a lovely place to live, surrounded by coastline and not far from the Lake District, where she likes to spend at least one of her days off from work. She has always loved writing and reading and loves reading books that make the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end. Unable to find enough scary stories to read, she decided to write her own.

I dedicate this book to all my amazing readers; you are what makes this all worthwhile and I’m eternally grateful for your support. Helen xx

I would like to thank my fabulous editor Victoria Oundjian for her patience and guidance; also huge thanks to the rest of the team for making this book what it is. A big thank you to the lovely Jan Johnson for answering my strange questions without raising an eyebrow. I’d like to thank my husband Steve for making me write on the days I didn’t want to. My kids for cooking their own meals – trust me it’s much safer that you feed yourselves. I’d like to thank Jerusha for looking after Jaimea so that I can escape to my office and work. You’re a little star. I’d also like to say a big thank you to all my writing friends, who are always there with support and guidance. Thank you to Sam and Tina who are always there when I’m in need of coffee and to talk about real life. I don’t know what I’d do without you. Finally a huge thank you to my gorgeous Mam and Dad for being the best, most supportive parents a girl could ever wish for. I love you both for ever and always.
