Max Seeck is conquering the world! During the hectic Frankfurt Book Fair more offers were received and deals closed for FAITHFUL READER and the standalone sequel.
This week, a four-way auction ended in Poland, and the happy publisher is Sonia Draga, who acquired FAITHFUL READER in a two-book-deal. In Latvia Latvijas Mediji bought the rights also in a two-book deal.
In Germany, Bastei Lübbe extended their pre-empt offer to a two-book-deal.
Congratulations, Max!
More offers are expected in several territories, and as of today, Max Seeck’s Faithful Reader will be published in 18 territories and counting! Max Seeck is excited and very happy and has started writing the standalone sequel, a murder mystery about Jessica Niemi, scheduled for publication in September 2020 in Finland. Faithful Reader has already reached a bestseller status in Finland since publication in August 2019.
