A Criminal Couple
Angus Cargill at Faber has signed Scottish author Doug Johnstone’s SMOKEHEADS as part of a two-book deal. SMOKEHEADS will be published in late spring 2011, with the second book published the following year. SMOKEHEADS is a classic ‘what if?’ thriller, in which four friends go on an island whisky tour that goes seriously awry.
And Tindal Street Press has acquired PREVIOUS CONVICTIONS by David Belbin, the first in a new crime series featuring a pair of unlikely heroes: one of ‘Blair’s Babes’ and a former dope dealer. PREVIOUS CONVICTIONS begins on the eve of New Labour’s landslide victory in 1997, when a female MP and her ex-boyfriend uncover a miscarriage of justice.
Both deals were agented by Allan.
