Hot Key announces further Lockhart titles

Bonnier Zaffre imprint Hot Key Books has acquired two more novels by YA author E Lockhart.

The first book, Genuine Fraud, is about two girls called Imogen and Jule. Imogen is described as “a runaway heiress, an orphan, a cook and a cheat”, whilst Jule is “a fighter, a social chameleon and an athelete”. It will be published in hardback in September. A second book will follow at a later date.

Hot Key acquired UK and Irish rights from Random House Children’s Books US.
