New Book by International Bestselling Author Rhonda Byrne To Be Published Globally by HarperCollins Publishers

HarperCollins Publishers announced it has acquired world rights to a major new book by Rhonda Byrne, author of global phenomenon The Secret. On November 24, 2020, HarperOne, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, will publish The Greatest Secret in the US. The book will be published simultaneously in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, India, and subsequently across all HarperCollins locations worldwide.

The Greatest Secret, the long-awaited major work by Rhonda Byrne, lays out the next quantum leap in a journey that will take the reader beyond the material world and into the spiritual realm, where all possibilities exist. The book reflects Rhonda’s own journey, shares the most direct way out for those experiencing hardship and the path to end pain and suffering endured by so many, and shines a light on a future without anxiety or fear. Filled with accessible practices that can be immediately put to use and profound revelations that take the reader on an incomparable journey, Rhonda’s discovery is reinforced throughout by the revelatory words of sages from around the world, past and present.

“Fourteen years after the publication of her first book, I’m thrilled to publish Rhonda’s masterwork, The Greatest Secret. After showing us how to create anything we want to be, do, or have, this new book reveals the most profound discovery we can make about ourselves, showing us the way out of negativity, problems, and hurdles and how to reach lasting happiness and bliss,” says Judith Curr, President and Publisher of HarperOne Group. 

“I’m excited and honored to share the discoveries of my new book with readers around the world. With every step you take through this book, you will become happier and your life will become more effortless, fears and uncertainty of the future will no longer plague you, anxiety and stress about your daily struggles or world events will dissolve, and you can and will be free of every form of suffering,” says Byrne.

“It is a privilege to be publishing Rhonda Byrne in HarperCollins’s Global Publishing Program. I cannot think of a better author and a better message to help readers across all international markets from Japan to Brazil and all of Europe,” says Chantal Restivo-Alessi, Chief Digital Officer and CEO, International Foreign Language for HarperCollins Publishers.

“In an unfathomably challenging year for many, this book will enable people to take back control of their lives in the face of uncertainty. We may not be able to change the events that confront and surround us, but Rhonda teaches us to change the way that we feel about them. The Greatest Secret will be a publication of global and historical significance,” says Katya Shipster, Publishing Director, Thorsons, HarperCollins UK.

Curr published Byrne’s first book, The Secret, on November 26, 2006, while at Atria Books. It has since sold more than 35 million copies around the world, been published in 58 countries, become a household name for achieving one’s dreams, and remains one of the all-time bestselling brands in inspirational self-help. Four subsequent titles were published by Byrne, each in service of The Secret.    

The Greatest Secret (November 24, 2020; $26.99 US; hardcover) will be four color throughout. The ebook and audiobook editions will be published simultaneously; a Spanish-language edition published by HarperCollins Español will follow.
