In an exciting first sale for the AAPS Literary Agency, we are delighted to announce that Melbourne comedian and performer Nicholas Johnson has sold two books featuring Melbourne con-artists to Simon & Schuster Australia. The series has been described as a fresh, fast and funny modern take on the heist novel in the tradition of The Sting and Nine Queens. The first book, Chasing The Ace is due for release in mid-2014, with sequel Running The Red to follow in 2015.
