A date for your diaries!

Phillipa Ashley contributed a short story to last week's edition of My Weekly, entitled 'Special Connections'.

The magazine is on sale now. In addition, the magazine reviewed Phillipa's latest book, the fabulously festive The Christmas Holiday:

"I'd defy even the most ardent Christmas grinch not to be converted to loving the season through this gorgeous story. The Christmas Holiday is a total festive treat filled with emotion and entertainment."

We are delighted to welcome new client Jacquie Bloese to the Agency this week. 

Jacquie, who joins Broo Doherty's list and whose debut novel, The French House was published earlier this year by Hodder and Stoughton will see her next novel, The Golden Hour, is coming in spring 2024.

The forthcoming second in Richard Swan's Empire of the Wolf series, The Tyranny of Faith, has been given a starred review in Kirkus:

"This book travels even further beyond the traveling investigator/justice dealer mold of Tremayne’s Sister Fidelma and van Gulik’s Judge Dee series and more squarely into territory reminiscent of Andrzej Sapkowksi’s Hussite trilogy, another complex and dark historical fantasy series inspired by medieval state-military-church political conflicts."

Doom is inevitable; it will be interesting (and no doubt, heart-wrenching) to see what form it will take."

Congratulations to Eva Björg Ægisdóttir and Ragnar Jónasson, who saw both their novels respectively shortlisted for the Icelandic Crime Fiction Award. 

Ægisdóttir's Boys Who Hurt and Jónasson's Reykjavík (co-written with Icelandic Prime Minister Katrín Jakobsdóttir) are honoured at this year's Awards.

Finally, the cover for The Ungrateful Dead, the third in Adam Simcox's The Dying Squad series, has been revealed:
Picture
A MISSING DETECTIVE

Detective Joe Lazarus is missing. The Dying Squad are on the case, but following reports of his sighting, signs suggest he may have fallen back into his criminal ways.

A DEATH IN A NIGHTCLUB

A new drug is taking the world by storm. Spook allows the living to see the dead, but its effects are often fatal. The Dying Squad's visit to a Berlin nightclub quickly turns their search into an entirely more sinister case.

TWO WORLDS COLLIDE

Because the invention of Spook has another purpose. One that's been decades in the planning. Two worlds are on a collision course - the living and the dead's - and the Dying Squad must summon all their investigatory cunning to stop a plot that could change people's (after)lives for ever.


​The book will be published in July 2023.
