Less than three months after he was fired by President Trump, former FBI Director James Comey has a book deal.

Flatiron Books told the Associated Press on Wednesday that Comey’s book will focus on leadership and decision-making and write about his experience as head of the FBI, from his handling of the Hillary Clinton investigation to investigating allegations of collusion between Trump’s administration and Russia. 

Flatiron said Comey will cite “examples from some of the highest-stakes situations in the past two decades of American government” and “share yet-unheard anecdotes from his long and distinguished career.”

The book, which doesn’t yet have a title, is scheduled to be released next spring.

“Throughout his career, James Comey has had to face one difficult decision after another as he has served the leaders of our country,” Flatiron Publisher and President Bob Miller said in a statement. “His book promises to take us inside those extraordinary moments in our history, showing us how these leaders have behaved under pressure. By doing so, Director Comey will give us unprecedented entry into the corridors of power, and a remarkable lesson in leadership itself.”
