Every serial killer has a story to tell . . .

We're thrilled to be sharing the cover for Rebecca Philipson's incredible debut, How To Get Away With Murder, publishing 12 March 2026.

Denver Brady claims to be the most successful serial killer of our time – and that’s precisely why you’ve never heard of him.

But with the publication of his manual for aspiring serial killers, How to Get Away With Murder, that’s about to change.

When a copy is found at the home of a girl who was tragically murdered, DI Samantha Hansen is given the job of tracking down the elusive author.

As Denver and Sam’s stories unfold and converge, it becomes clear that there’s more to both than meets the eye. And once Denver’s book goes viral, the pressure to find and bring him to justice brings Sam close to breaking point.

But who is hunting whom?

In 2026, everyone is going to be talking about Janey Devine...

A sweeping tale about the far-reaching effects of a murder on a community in Glasgow, we are thrilled to introduce you to an epic story of resilience, redemption and love.

Introducing: A Bad, Bad Place by Frances Crawford.

'Clever, honest, heart-rending.' Val McDermid
'Richly authentic, funny, moving and insightful.' Janice Hallett

*Blurb*
Everyone's talking about Janey Devine…

Glasgow, 1979. While walking her dog, twelve-year-old Janey finds a murdered woman on an abandoned railway - and her innocent childhood ends in a shocking moment of trauma.

When the victim is named as daughter of a local hardman, Janey's nana, Maggie, is distraught and deeply afraid. Janey claims she can’t remember what she saw that day, but the police think she’s hiding something, and they’re not the only ones interested.

Maggie tries desperately to keep Janey safe but is battling long-buried secrets of her own. As fear and rumour stalk the streets of Possilpark, Maggie becomes convinced she will lose her beloved granddaughter forever - especially when Janey starts to remember exactly what happened in that bad, bad place...
