Print editions will also be available. Known for his psychological thrillers and crime novels, Neil Cross has been called “Britain’s own Stephen King” by The Guardian and “fierce and poignant” by The Sunday Times. He is equally praised for his literary storytelling as for his modern gothic portrayal of individuals forced into extraordinary circumstances. In addition to Heartland, Open Road Media will release Captured, Natural History, Always the Sun, Holloway Falls, and his first novel, Mr. In-Between, in print and ebook editions. “We are so happy to bring Neil Cross’s work to an American audience who has so embraced the television series Luther,” says Charlotte Greig, Open Road’s Strategic Advisor in the UK. In addition to his nomination for the PEN/Ackerley Prize for Literary Autobiography, Neil Cross was longlisted for the Man Booker Prize.
