Authors: Michael Arditti
I am indebted to many people in both England and the
Philippines
for their assistance with my research, among them Father John Ball, Edward Christopher Baguio, Chicoy Enerio, Rod Hall, Father Bernard Lynch, Garnet Montano, Father Anthony Meredith and Mark Woodruff.
Rupert Christiansen, Emmanuel Cooper, Andrew Gordon, Liz Jensen and James Kent gave me invaluable advice on early drafts of the novel, as did Hilary Sage and Ilsa Yardley on the final text.
I consulted various books in the course of writing, among the most insightful and informative were:
