Deputy Managing Director Claire Bord has acquired World English Language rights to three books in a new special agent series by Michele Dominguez Greene from Jill Marsal at Marsal Lyon Literary Agency.

The first book, My Name Is Emily Ray, introduces us to Emily, a special agent and head of the FBI CARD team, tasked with finding abducted and missing children in the western United States. Emily was seven years old when she was abducted and held in captivity for eight years. Now, twenty-eight years later she’s leading the investigation into the disappearance of a little girl from Cove Park, but Emily quickly realises that the case bears chilling similarities to her own abduction and her kidnapper may still be alive.

Michele Dominguez Greene said:

“I am thrilled to be working with Storm Publishing on my new book series featuring FBI Agent Emily Ray. As an author you want to sell your book, of course, but more importantly you want to land with the right publisher, the right editor who gets your voice and narrative style. I am very excited about working with Claire Bord and developing the series with everyone at Storm!”

Claire Bord commented:

“Michele has created such an intriguing and well-developed series character in Emily Ray. Michele’s writing is emotionally engaging, so atmospheric and this book has the most brilliantly executed twist… I can’t wait for readers to get hooked on the series.”

My Name is Emily Ray publishes in January 2025 with books 2 and 3 in the series following in March and May the same year.
