HIDDEN to be published!
I'm so thrilled to announce that the Manuscript from Hell, which now has the title of HIDDEN, will be published by Severn House!
Here is the official announcement that was in Publisher's Marketplace:
Tattoo Shop Mystery series author Karen Olson's HIDDEN, a new series featuring a woman who has spent 15 years hiding from her criminal-hacker past with zero carbon footprint, only to be discovered on Block Island, where she's been living as a bicycle tour guide and painter without a cell phone or bank account, to Kate Lyall-Grant at Severn House, in a two-book deal, by Josh Getzler at Hannigan Salky Getzler (World English). Translation: Dburby@hsgagency.com Film/TV: jgetzler@hsgagency.com.
I have been working on this book for a long time. Years, in fact. It is a huge departure from my previous books in that it's not a mystery, but a suspense novel.
I am also very excited to be joining the Severn House list. HIDDEN will come out first in the UK, possibly even as soon as July 2015, and then here in the US, possibly in November 2015.
I did write HIDDEN as a standalone, but my new editor saw a series potential in it, so I am now working on plotting out the second book, which is due at the end of August. While I have been busy this past year, I will be busier in the new one.
It promises to be a very Happy New Year!

What a relief to finally finish your MS. I'm way behind just having read Sacred Cows in an old Readers' Digest Condensed volume and can't wait to get to the library later today to borrow more of your works. If they are as fast paced as this one I'll continue to devour a book a day and of course never apologize for not doing long overdue housework. Take a break and then come back to us with more great works. Sure do admire you and your writing. Lois Sinclair, North Bay, Ont., Canada
