We are very excited to announce that debut author Nick Hollin has signed a two-book deal with Bookouture via his agent Sarah Manning at The Bent Agency. In the Blood is a dark and disturbing thriller about a serial killer nicknamed The Cartoonist who leaves his victims in strange poses on the kitchen floor. It will publish early next year with a sequel already underway.

Commissioning Editor, Jessie Botterill said of the deal:

I’ve been on the hunt for a new crime series with a twist and In the Blood ticks every possible box. Fans of TV’s Dexter will be hiding under the covers! There’s no denying that Nick Hollin is a name you are all going to remember.

Nick Hollin said:

A life’s dream made real thanks to my brilliant agent and publisher! Bookouture feels like the perfect home.
