I’m so glad I can finally talk about this. And I will be talking a lot more about it in the run up to 2025’s UK and US publications…
Orion acquires rights Holly Seddon’s ‘heart-wrenching’ thriller
Orion Fiction has acquired the rights to Holly Seddon’s new “heart-wreching” thriller 59 Minutes. UK & Commonwealth (excluding Canada) rights were acquired from Sophie Lambert at C&W.
Emily Bestler acquired US rights in a two-book pre-empt, for Emily Bestler Books.
59 Minutes follows the journey of three women trying to make it home to and protect their families, after everyone receives a message that missiles are set to destroy England in 59 minutes time.
The publisher has described the novel as “thoroughly gripping and gut-wrenching”.
