Good news in the Bookseller for fans of Ann Cleeves and Martina Cole:
Pan Macmillan is to rejacket crime author Ann Cleeves’ Inspector Vera Stanhope novels with an “atmospheric” new look.
The publisher has also delayed publication of the titles to tie in with broadcast of the ITV1 adaptation of Cleeves’ novel Hidden Depths, which has now been set for September 2010.
Hidden Depths, The Crow Trap and Telling Tales will now be published on 3rd September as £7.99 B-format paperbacks by Pan, with a new Vera Stanhope novel, as yet untitled, to be published as a £16.99 hardback on the same day by Macmillan.
Raven Black, the first title in Cleeves’ Shetland series, will also be a BBC Radio 4 “Afternoon Play” in January.

Karen thank you for your information and for your blog. I have Ann Cleeves on my TBR list and these are good news, since she has not been translated into Spanish yet, as far as I know.
I've not read the 'Vera' books yet but I loved Raven Black.
