This season, we’re searching for manuscripts that blend warmth with a chill—stories that settle into your bones and won’t let go. Here’s what’s on our radar while the snow falls:

  • Clever Spy Stories: Middle-aged female protagonists unraveling intricate plots in international settings. Bonus points for diverse casts and twists that leave us reeling.
  • Gothic Atmosphere: Haunted houses, eerie villages, long-buried secrets, and creeping shadows. This is your permission slip to scare us—just a little.
  • Historical Fiction (Not WWII): Narratives from untold eras and overlooked perspectives. Transport us to extraordinary places and moments we didn’t know we were missing.
  • Gilded Age Drama: Glittering wealth hiding sharp contrasts and sharper twists. Let us peek behind the velvet curtains for all the intrigue.
  • Character-Driven Literary Suspense: Slow-burn stories with emotionally complex characters navigating high-stakes situations. Make us feel the tension in our teeth.
