Editorial Director Emily Gowers has acquired World English Language rights from Kate Rizzo of Greene & Heaton to two darkly humorous crime thrillers by debut author Harry John Garbett. In his first novel Vows, readers will meet Fran and Gareth – a married couple with one small complication: she’s a killer, and he’s the detective trying to catch her. Fans of How to Kill Your Family and Sweetpea are going to fall hard for Harry’s witty, twisty and playful novels. Vows will publish in June.
Harry says:
‘I am absolutely thrilled to be working with Kate, Emily and the team at Storm Publishing to bring my debut novel, Vows, to readers. Fran and Gareth’s story of love, deceit, and murder has been living in my mind for the past five years, and I couldn’t be more excited to finally share it.’
Emily says:
‘From the moment I met Fran, bloody knife in hand, hastily cobbling together a plan to the beat of Under Pressure, I was hooked. Harry’s novel is a pitch-perfect whirlwind of scarily believable hijinks tempered by gut-wrenching emotion and I could not be more excited to be working with him and Kate.’
