well - I have a link between them, but no idea who the next would be - the answer is a name (needs first and last names) so all the things I thought of don't fit with this...
Help...

If you have the link, you probably have the chain. Who fits next into the chain?

The answer is closer than you think

I'd thought of that person earlier - but it wasn't correct...

Spoiler: (highlight to read)

myself as the reader


or

the publisher - but I couldn't find one with two names - they are are 'something and son' or a single name

It's even closer than that, you probably have found the link, that as you go down the list, each person makes references to the others above, well who makes references to all of the people mentioned on the card.

You're on the right track there psychobabe....

Spoiler: (highlight to read)

i thought of me as the reader too then looked again and the answer was staring up at me.



This one of those cards that, when you get the answer, you'll think 'd'oh!'. I seem to have quite a few of those moments

you are after the name of a person that features all of the names of the people on the card. The answer is staring you in the face



If you need more help, PM me.

Thanks for the tips guys, like the others I'd got the link, but was looking far too deeply for the answer, (or should I say googling too much for the answer). Liked this card.

Too much googling, too much time spent on Amazon. I can safely say that this is a MEAN card. It's just not fair

If its any help you don't really need to do that. The answer is much simpler than you might expect. Unless I missed something the link between the names is a reasonably loose one. PM if you want a clearer hint.

I sympathise Robspot. This one made me groan in annoyance when I worked out the answer.

Hint for those who haven't got it yet

Spoiler: (highlight to read)

you are looking for references. Each person referenced the ones listed ahead of them. So who is referencing them all?

No, I've solved it but that's what makes me say it's mean. It's one of those real "slap your forehead" cards
