Random House has launched three new digital-exclusive imprints, joining the recently re-launched Loveswept imprint for romance and women’s fiction. A dedicated editorial, marketing and publicity team will support each of the new imprints: Alibi (mystery/thriller), Hydra (science fiction) and Flirt (YA/New Adult). 
The new imprint program will be overseen by Allison Dobson, v-p, digital publishing director. She is working with Scott Shannon, senior v-p, publisher, digital content, and Matt Schwartz, v-p, director of digital strategy.
Gina Wachtel, v-p, associate publisher, will oversee the editorial team, which includes Sue Grimshaw, editor-at-large, romance; Randall Klein, associate editor, mystery and thriller; and Sarah Peed, associate editor, science fiction and fantasy.
"As publishing continues to evolve, with more authors finding their first home in digital, our challenge is to create new ways for readers to discover books," Dobson said. "This dedicated team understands both the content and medium, and can effectively break out authors in the digital space."
