It is a very sad day in for the extended Read By Candlelight pet family. Two Sundays ago, we said goodbye to our little dog Tui. Today, we heard that Charlie, another RBC veteran, has gone.

As is now Read by Candlelight tradition, I’m going to introduce the pets that Read by Candlelight is dedicated to. If I’d been thinking ahead, I would have dedicated the book to Cora, the most ghostlike of all the cats I have housesat. Instead, I went with Baxter and Maisie for their contributions to the editing process.

The story of Stripes and Nala, the two cats to whom The Lady of the Bog is dedicated.

As the Disturbance at Foxwood Court revisits favourite characters and a familiar setting, it seems fitting that it should be dedicated to one of my all-time favourite dogs.
