       For Betsy and Andy Lack.

       And, as always, for my wife, Jamie,

       and my children, Lily and Nicholas.

       Epigraph

       When a man rubs out a pencil-mark, he should be careful to see that the line is quite obliterated. For if a secret is to be kept, no precautions are too great.

      — GRAHAM GREENE, THE MINISTRY OF FEAR

       No more tears now; I will think upon revenge.

      — MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS
