Publishers Lunch had the scoop: “[T]he first in an epic series about a man raised in a box who becomes the world’s most skilled assassin, to John Schoenfelder at Mulholland Books and Bill Massey at Orion, in a three-book deal, for publication beginning Spring 2012, by Simon Lipskar at Writers House.”

You can read all of Huston’s novel, Caught Stealing, at Scribd.

We’ve been watching the Little, Brown crime imprint Mulholland Books since the day it was born. Today the imprint launched a new site with an inspiring essay by novelist Nick Tosches entitled, “Making Sense of Nothing and Making Nothing of Sense: A Maundering on the Taxonomy of Writing and I Forget What Else.”
