Everyone knows Ruby Devereaux’s books. But no one knows her story ... until now.
From wartime England to modern day London, via New York, Berlin and Vietnam, in the midst of parties, scandals and conflict zones, and of course, meeting many men along the way, Ruby Devereaux has lived one hell of a life. And in a writing career spanning seven decades, she’s poured it all into her work.
But now in her 80s, Ruby’s life has slowed down, and her typewriter has been put away. Until a call from her publisher persuades Ruby she has one more book in her. Her agent Marina is under no illusion that Ruby is writing her memoirs for the money ... but even now, Ruby has the power to surprise – and whatever Ruby does, she does on her own terms.
But is she really about to reveal the secrets of her infamous life?

Also published last week was the devastatingly poignant and powerful memoir from Louise Beech, Eighteen Seconds.
In it, Beech looks back on the events that led to the day her mother wrote down her last words, then jumped off the Humber Bridge. She missed witnessing the horror herself by minutes. Louise recounts the pain and trauma of her childhood alongside her love for her siblings with a delicious dark humour and a profound voice of hope for the future.

| Finally, we are delighted for client Robert Rutherford who has signed a two-book deal with Hodder & Stoughton, with the first - Seven Days - due for publication in 2024 and book 2 in 2025. The World All Languages deal was negotiated by David Headley. |  |
Seven Days is described as “a fast-paced, high-octane crime novel about Alice, whose world is shattered when her estranged father is put on death row for murder and given seven days to live". The publisher added: “Alice knows her father is guilty of abandoning her. She knows he’s guilty of being unfaithful to her mother. But is he guilty of murder? She has one chance to save him from execution – but after the childhood she had, does she want to?"
