Jemima Forrester
Agent at David Higham Agency
Jemima joined David Higham in September 2016 having
previously been senior commissioning editor at Orion Publishing Group.
She is looking for commercial and upmarket fiction, including crime and
thrillers, psychological suspense, accessible literary fiction, women's
fiction and speculative/high-concept novels.
Jemima loves distinctive narrative voices, well-paced,
intriguing plots and characters that leap off the page. Her favourite
books of recent years include Elizabeth is
Missing, Disclaimer, Life After Life, The Night
Circus, Me Before You and anything by Jo Nesbø, Margaret
Atwood or Curtis Sittenfeld.
In non-fiction, she is looking for innovative cookery,
popular-culture and lifestyle projects, unique personal stories and
humour.

Fancy a Refresh Retreat in
September?
Run by agent and
writing consultant, Jacq Burns
This is a small group
retreat so that we can work intensively together.
The Sharing Bali
village offers a taste of paradise, and all food, private
accommodation and tuition is included, all for less than the
price of a good hotel room.
