Harry Potter and Cinderella producer David Barron is lining up his first long form TV drama with an adaptation of acclaimed 2018 detective novel A Treachery Of Spies, a historical thriller which starts with a murder in 1940s WWII France and unfurls its mysteries into the present day with a brilliant but haunted female detective as the lead.
Barron’s London-based BeaglePug outfit and UK firm Enriched Media have secured all TV, film and ancillary rights to the bestseller and the companies say they are in talks with U.S. and UK players for the TV rights.
The companies acquired the adaptation rights to Manda Scott’s novel from Emily Hayward Whitlock at The Artists Partnership working in association with Robert Caskie at Robert Caskie Ltd.
A Treachery of Spies is the second of Scott’s espionage thriller trilogy to feature female Detective Inspector Inès Picaut and will be the first to be adapted.
