Multi-million-copy and no.1 Kindle bestseller Angela Marsons signs for eight more books with Bookouture in major deal
Bookouture is thrilled to have signed a new deal for eight more books with multi-million-copy and no.1 Kindle bestseller Angela Marsons.
In February 2025 Bookouture celebrated ten years since the publication of Silent Scream, the first book in the multi-million-copy bestselling Kim Stone series. Since that publication, the series has sold six million copies worldwide and been translated into thirty-two languages, with TV rights optioned by the BBC. New books in the series go straight to number one in the Kindle charts when the pre-order is announced, with many thousands sold almost instantly. Marsons is a Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller, and also a chart-topper in Italy, where she has won the prestigious Premio Bancarella.
Bookouture is thrilled to have signed a new deal which secures her publishing through 2032 and the 36th title in the series.
Executive Publisher Ruth Tross acquired World rights directly from the author. She said,
‘Angela Marsons is the queen of crime and a major star in Bookouture’s list. Ever since Silent Scream hit no.1 back in 2015 the series has gone from strength to strength globally, both in English and multiple other languages. It’s been a really exciting time in the last year with the tenth anniversary, a print relaunch and book 20 in the series publishing and I couldn’t be prouder to be Angie’s editor and to know we have more books in the schedule to delight her many thousands of fans. We can’t wait for what comes next for this brilliant series!’
Angela Marsons said,
‘After an unbelievable ten years of working together I am absolutely delighted to sign for an additional eight books with Bookouture continuing to bring Kim Stone’s adventures to the fantastic readers. I wouldn’t want to publish these books with anyone else.’
Bookouture Managing Director Jenny Geras said,
‘To have an author sign an eight-book contract is a huge commitment, and we are truly honoured that Angela Marsons has entrusted us with so many more titles. We’re so proud of everything we’ve achieved in the last ten years and we look forward to many more years of seeing Kim Stone at the top of the charts where she belongs.’
