Publishing Deal - Jessie Keane

From the Bookseller:

HarperCollins has bought additional books from author Jessie Keane.

Publishing director at HarperFiction Wayne Brookes bought UK and Commonwealth rights to three Keane novels from Judith Murdoch for “a good six-figure sum”.

The first book is due in 2010.

The Euro Crime bibliography for Jessie Keane is here.

I haven't read any of her books but the covers are Martina Cole-esque.
