Thriller writer Richard Bard has landed a three-book deal with Amazon Publishing’s Thomas & Mercer imprint for his Brainrush series.

Bard had previously self-published Brainrush in July 2011; The Enemy of my Enemy followed in February 2012. The publisher plans to re-release both books in February 2013. The conclusion title, Final Judgment, will come out in June 2013.

Bard wrote on his site: “I couldn’t be happier with the new relationship. The team at T&M has an author-centric philosophy that is refreshing and inspiring … It’s an exciting time for this new author!”
