New York - Another expert on Osama bin Laden has a book deal.

Steve Coll, best known for the Pulitzer Prize-winning Ghost Wars: The Secret History of the CIA, Afghanistan, and bin Laden, from the Soviet Invasion to September 10, 2001, will write a new book that covers events of the past decade, through bin Laden's death last weekend.
