Another New Imprint to Watch

Blogger B.V. Lawson reports that British publishing house John Murray will launch a “‘distinctive new crime and thriller imprint’ titled Baskerville, and has hired Jade Chandler away from Harvill Secker to head up the new division. Chandler has worked with best-selling author Jo Nesbø, award-winning Abir Mukherjee, Costa Prize-shortlisted Denise Mina and Emily Koch, whose debut If I Die Before I Wake was a Waterstones Thriller of the Month. In 2018, Chandler also set up the Harvill Secker/Bloody Scotland Crime Writing Award to find the most exciting new crime fiction by writers of color.”
