Story Surveillance #29

Story Surveillance is a weekly exploration of IP opportunities around the world – including everything from book announcements and magazine articles to harder-to-find nuggets in social media, library vaults, lost manuscripts and other rich sources. The survey is carried out by the staff of Project Brazen for its own purposes, but we also share it with a small group of companies and collaborators.

In this week’s edition: A spine-chilling novel about a sinister language school, an elevated procedural about the UK's real-life amateur sleuths, and the forthcoming memoir of a man who "deprograms" cult victims.
