Associate Publisher Natasha Harding has acquired World all language rights for three novels in the Detective Rachel Prince series. THE MISSING CHILD will publish in February 2018, followed by THE UNLUCKY ONES in May 2018 and THE PERFECT GIRLS in September 2018.

Natasha Harding said of the deal,

I was completely hooked by Alison’s writing from the very first pages of THE MISSING CHILD. Alison combines fast-paced, addictive crime mysteries with a bold, distinctive central character who will have huge appeal for fans of this genre. Watch out for Detective Rachel Prince in 2018!

Alison James said,

I’m very excited to be joining Bookouture, and to have this opportunity to benefit from their creativity and expertise. As a lifelong fan of crime fiction myself, I’ve always wanted to create a character who will tackle the most extreme cases. Now that she’s been brought to life, I’ve definitely fallen for DI Rachel Prince, and I hope readers will enjoy her journey.
