A comic first novel that stars a female foreign correspondent in Africa who goes home to Los Angeles to have her baby–and has to try to reconcile the two vastly contrasting worlds–was bought by Shaye Areheart for her eponymous imprint at Harmony. It’s called “LATCH” by California-born Maria Lennon, who was educated in Switzerland and England and worked in Italian TV before returning home. World rights, excluding German, were sold by agent Marly Rusoff.
