Georgia Kaufmann's upcoming novel, The Dressmaker of Paris, received a fantastic quote from author Gill Paul:
"The story of a remarkable woman whose life is shaped by an unforgivable decision her father made when she was a schoolgirl. This is a book you will lost yourself in."
We couldn't be more excited for this gorgeous debut to hit shelves in January 2021.

| Another debut with a fabulous endorsement: Lightseekers by Femi Kayode: "An absolutely cracking debut, fresh, unique and beautifully written, a sure-fire candidate for next year's big prizes. In a time when travel is nigh-on impossible, it's wonderful to be transported to another world in such a vivid and memorable fashion." Trevor Wood |  |
Both Stuart Turton's The Devil and the Dark Water ("dark, disturbing and very hard to put down") and Stephen Moss' The Swallow: A Biography ("this year-in-the-life-of biography, with its attractive illustrations, is a delight") were selected for Choice magazine's bookshelf this month.

| We're very excited to show you the cover for Adam Simcox's forthcoming debut novel, The Dying Squad. When Detective Inspector Joe Lazarus storms a Lincolnshire farmhouse, he expects to bring down a notorious drug gang; instead, he discovers his own body and a spirit guide called Daisy-May. She's there to enlist him to The Dying Squad, a spectral police force who solve crimes their flesh and blood counterparts cannot. Lazarus reluctantly accepts and returns to the Lincolnshire Badlands, where he faces dangers from both the living and the dead in his quest to discover the identity of his killer - before they kill again. The book will be released in hardback in July 2021, from Gollancz. |  |
