Any 'wrangling' is over. TFP went into liquidation on the 31st March. HarperCollins have taken it over as an imprint, selecting some of the titles to take onboard.

Sadly, not my two thrillers which they were to release four days after the liquidation! If any agent out there would like a three book crime series, edited and ready to go, please see my showcase page on WriteWords or go to www.ronmorgans.com
