Take It Back is a captivating court drama, perfect for fans of Apple Tree Yard, He Said/She Said and Anatomy of a Scandal

The day I got a book contract started unfavorably. Our 13-member group had been in the Australian outback for one night after fought at 40 ° C heat against a broken air conditioning system, a decomposed windshield, a vehicle change and at night an alarming amount of vermin-as well as a snake and a dingo.

In the morning we stacked our burning van and drove to Kata Tjuta. We had a flat tire within a few minutes. We lost an hour through this last drama before we went back onto the street.

After half of the four-hour drive, my phone pinging with sudden reception and invited incoming emails. There was one of my literary agent.

The preview said: "I am very happy to send this email. I really wanted to call, but since I didn't know exactly where in Australia you were, I didn't want to risk any early wake-up call."

The rest of the email was not loaded. My heart pounded in my chest when I repeatedly refreshed the screen and prayed to the gods of Telstra Telecom. After 10 minutes of desperate waiting, the message was finally loaded.

We have an offer. And not just any offer, but a two-book deal with Harpercollins, one of the largest publishers in the world.

That was in February 2018, and because publishing works at a rapid pace, this book will appear this week - as a hardcover on August 8th.

Take IT Back is a court drama, perfect for fans of Apple Tree Yard, He Said/She Said and Anatomy of a Scandal.

The victim is Jodie Wolfe, a 16-year-old girl with facialism, who accuses four boys somewhat unthinkable. The accused are four handsome teenagers made of hard -working immigrant families, all with hardening stories.

The former lawyer Zara Kaleel takes over Jodie's case; She believes her, even if the ones who are close to iody, don't do it. Together they enter into the most explosive criminal trial of the year, in which ugly divisions are discovered within British society. When everything walks around Zara, she becomes even more determined to do justice to iody. But at what costs?

TAKE IT Back was named one of the best books that you should read this summer and one of the books you should read in 2019. It was also selected by The Pigeonhole as her very first audio erialization, which could be an unique industry.

unnecessarily to say that I am absolutely enthusiastic. Writing a book is an advance of trust; A long -term trick, through which they convince themselves of taking self -doubt and remaining in the belief that one day someone will recognize the value of their work. I feel incredibly happy that my game of chance paid off.

I know that many people do not buy bound books because they are expensive (mine costs £ 12.99), but as I said to my sister and my nephew, it costs a nando meal and will keep it busy.

hardcover sales really make a difference in an author's career. Most of us don't get six -digit deals (I certainly don't) and the only thing that maintains our career is the support of our readers. To help you with the purchase decision, you can read the first chapter for free.

I hope our dear readers at Atlas & Boots will want to read the book. I hope you will buy or borrow it and find something valuable in it. I hope you will share it, review or tell a reader about it. I hope she grabs it and surprises her and also stimulates them to think.

I hope because hope, such as rejection, is one of the few constants on the journey of a writer. I hope you will share this part with me.
