Bookouture Rights Team
Peta Nightingale
Contracts, Rights and Translations Director
I joined Bookouture in February 2017. By bringing rights-selling in house in 2021, we have substantially increased our sub-rights revenue by making Bookouture titles the go-to brand in both translation and film and TV markets. Alongside this we launched Bookouture Deutschland in 2021, translating and publishing direct to German readers with significant success.
Richard King
Rights Director
I joined Bookouture in 2021 after 10 years in the Rights team at Orion, where I sold a wide variety of rights and genres across the entire Orion list. Now, I spearhead translation and film/TV rights sales across the Bookouture catalogue and work hand-in-glove with my editorial colleagues to ensure we are maximising rights potential from our publishing. In 2023 I won Rights Professional of the Year at the British Book Awards.

I joined the Bookouture team as Rights and Contracts Executive in 2020. I manage the sale of translation rights in Asian and Middle Eastern markets, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Greece, Latvia, Macedonia, Serbia, Slovenia and Romania, as well as large print and audio rights.
