We’re thrilled to announce that Editorial Director Emily Gowers has acquired World All Language rights, including film and TV, for two gripping linked psychological novels from S.E. Reed.
The first domestic thriller, publishing in September 2025, introduces Hannah Price, a young mother haunted by her past. When her seemingly lovely new neighbour begins to mirror every aspect of her life, Hannah uncovers a chilling truth: her entire marriage is built on a deadly game of identity and obsession. But Hannah isn’t the sort to take that lying down…
Shelby says,
“Working with Storm Publishing on these books has been quite remarkable. My editor, Emily Gowers, is fantastic. It’s as if she crawled into my mind and became part of this fictional world with me. She’s explored every twist and turn, gasped at all the right moments, and used her expertise to take my storytelling to the next level. I can’t wait for these books to find their way into readers’ hands, so they too can obsess over picture-perfect Hannah Price, just like her new neighbour Sophia.”
Emily says,
“From the moment I read Shelby’s story, I knew I had to publish these books. The psychological complexity and mounting tension she creates had me riveted. I know that this exploration of identity, obsession, and the darkness that can lurk behind perfect facades will keep readers up late into the night, desperate to uncover the truth, and I can’t wait for those lucky people to get started!”
