Constable & Robinson signs A D Garrett novel
27.10.11 | Charlotte Williams
Constable & Robinson has signed a five-figure deal to acquire a new detective novel written under the pen name A D Garrett.
The book, jointly authored by thriller writer Margaret Murphy and forensic expert Professor Dave Barclay, was signed by C&R’s James Gurbutt through agent Felicity Blunt at Curtis Brown, with Katie McGowan at Curtis Brown handling the translation rights.
The publisher has British Commonwealth rights to the book excluding Canada. Blunt said: "The combined talents of Professor Barclay and Margaret Murphy merge to create a truly twisted crime novel, with brilliant but flawed forensic scientist Nick Fenimore at its centre." The publication date is to be confirmed.

No comments can be made on DESMOND CLARKES important piece as the percentage of lock out is now almost total. It looks like the end of the line for my commentary on trade matters . Thank Goodness I hear you say . Bye Bye I say
I'm the same, Julian - can't be arsed to comment on the literary achievements of Tulisa, even though I can. I rarely contribute now, because I can't.
The Bat Says: This sounds great...I love forensic-based crime novels...Britain's answer to CSI & NCIS, perhaps?
About time we had something new from Margaret Murphy. I sold lots of copies of the recent crime anthology 'Best Eaten Cold' - one of her short stories is in it - so it'll be great to have something full length to sell...let's hope the collaboration works well.
