Shocking JAMES BOND News

More Adaptation News

Candice Fox’s High Wire (which I think so far is only published in Australia) is in development to be a series at Apple TV+. The book, a crime thriller, follows Harvey Buck as he races across the Australian outback to see his dying girlfriend. Being a crime novel, though, things take a turn after he picks up Clare Holland, whose car broke down. Both are ambushed, strapped with bombs, and forced to follow dangerous missions or have their bombs detonated. So, not a cozy mystery.

How Tariffs Will Impact Book Costs for Readers: “Tariffs will impact book lovers. Though there is a temporary suspension on said tariffs for goods coming to the US from Canada or Mexico, the 10% tariff on Chinese imports has gone into effect. This means that it is really likely the price of books will begin to slide upward.”
