Sister as a paperback in USA

Just heard that 'Sister' will be published in paperback on the 20th December . I've seen the cover and the quotes gave me a shiver. Thank you to Christine Kopprasch, my editor in the US, and the team at Crown. Am hoping someone will snap its pic in a bookstore and send it to me!

USA cover of 'Afterwards'

Just seen the first designs for the American hardback jacket for 'Afterwards'. Feel so excited about its publication in April.  I think its only when I see a jacket that I realize the novel is actually going to be on shelves in bookshops…
