Osmania Takes the Rights World by Storm

Richard Osman’s The Thursday Murder Club was published on September 3rd 2020 and has enjoyed two weeks at the #1 spot on the Sunday Times Bestseller list. It has now sold over 75,000 hardbacks and 130,000 copies across all formats, smashing records and making him the bestselling adult debut since JK Rowling’s A Casual Vacancy, and the bestselling adult crime debut since records began!

Even more impressive is that before publication, The Thursday Murder Club sold in the UK alongside 16 other countries including film – selling in several foreign territories even before the UK and the US came on-board. Since publication, that has shot up to 28 territories and counting. Alongside these territories has come an incredible variation of covers for foreign language editions. We love foreign covers because although they are for the same book, they represent each country’s individual characteristics and creativity. We are happy to share the current covers we have for The Thursday Murder Club, and look forward to the further foreign editions that are yet to come!
