Commissioning editor Abigail Fenton has acquired world all language rights in three standalone thrillers. The first book, which follows a driver who picks up a distressed woman on an isolated road, and finds himself embroiled in the aftermath of a massacre, will publish in March 2018, with the next two following in August and December.

Commissioning Editor Abigail Fenton said,

Jake’s thrillers throw ordinary people into extraordinary circumstances, and keep you on the edge of your seat as twist after twist unravels. With pacy writing and tonnes of ideas, Jake is the dream author, and I’m so pleased to be welcoming him to Bookouture.

Jake added,

Getting my novels accepted by Bookouture was a fantastic piece of news. Bookouture was my first choice because they are fresh, dynamic and expert. Abigail and the team have been fantastic to work with. I couldn’t ask for more.

We do hope you will join us on Facebook and Twitter to celebrate.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][mk_image image_width=”800″ image_height=”350″ crop=”true” lightbox=”false” frame_style=”simple” target=”_self” caption_location=”inside-image” align=”left” margin_bottom=”10″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
