My debut novel A Reluctant Spy acquired by Headline
Image of announcement on The Bookseller website
I am delighted, excited and frankly still a little stunned to announce that my debut novel, A Reluctant Spy, has been acquired by Headline Fiction (part of Hachette Publishing Group) in a one-book deal.
