Bookouture acquires bestselling Amazon Publishing author Emily Bleeker
Bookouture has acquired two women’s suspense fiction titles from bestselling author Emily Bleeker, scheduled to publish in 2027.
We are delighted to announce that Associate Publisher Jess Whitlum-Cooper has acquired World All Language rights (including audio) to two women’s suspense fiction titles from bestselling author Emily Bleeker from Marlene Stringer at The Stringer Literary Agency.
The first novel will publish in May 2027 and tells the story of two estranged sisters, torn apart when one eloped with the other’s fiancé, reuniting fifteen years later after his mysterious death. As they uncover what happened, are they ready for the truth about the man they both loved? And when they find it, are they prepared for it to destroy everything?
Jess said,
‘I am over the moon to be bringing Emily’s enormous talent to the Bookouture list. I have long been an admirer of her writing, and to be working with her now as her editor is a dream come true. These new suspenseful and gripping novels will break your heart and put it back together again, and I can’t wait for her legion of fans to discover them.’
Emily said,
‘I couldn’t be more excited (and honored!) to be working with Jess and the Bookouture team. Jess is everything you hope for in an editor—sharp, witty, supportive and deeply thoughtful. Her enthusiasm for this project has been energizing from the start. I’m especially thrilled to be diving back into suspense-driven family dramas, a space I love so much. I’m incredibly grateful for the team’s enthusiasm, and I can’t wait to see what lies ahead for us together.’
