I'm delighted to share the news that One More Chapter has acquired two more Eva Glyn books set in Croatia, the first being The Dubrovnik Book Club, which will be published in ebook, paperback and audio in March. Here are some excerpts from the press release:
HarperCollins UK’s One More Chapter has signed a new two-book
deal with Eva Glyn, the author of
The Olive Grove and
The Island of
Secrets. Publisher Charlotte Ledger acquired World All Language rights from
Eva Glyn, with the first book,
The Dubrovnik Book Club, scheduled to
publish in March 2024.
An escapist and emotional novel
with a cosy mystery element, The Dubrovnik Book Club is perfect for fans
of Victoria Hislop and The Durrells. Newly arrived on the sun-drenched
shores of Croatia, Claire Thomson’s life is about to change forever when she
starts working at a local bookshop. With her cousin Vedran, employee Luna and
Karmela, a professor, they form an unlikely book club. But when their first
book club pick – an engrossing cosy crime – inspires them to embark upon an
investigation that is close to the group’s heart, they quickly learn the value
of keeping their new-found friends close as lives and stories begin to entwine…
Glyn said: ‘I am delighted to be setting two
completely new books in Croatia, especially as it is the only European
destination to be included in Lonely Planet's top ten countries to travel to in
2024. I can't wait to work with the team at One More Chapter to take more
readers there.’
Ledger added: ‘It’s such a joy to continue
publishing Eva’s heartwarming books set in beautiful Croatia. Every time she
comes to me with an idea I immediately want to grab my passport and head to the
airport! We are so excited to bring her books to new readers at home and around
the world.’
