Pan Macmillan has bought three crime novels by debut novelist Mari Hannah.
Publishing director Wayne Brookes acquired UK and Commonwealth rights including Canada from Oliver Munson at Blake Friedmann.
Brookes said: "Mari has done everything right in creating what I know will be an extremely addictive series. She has the perfect protagonist in Kate Daniels and her North East setting adds such depth and atmosphere to these books."
The Murder Wall will be published in early 2012, with Settled Blood to be published later in the year.
