Unfinished Business was an idea conceived between Paul Ferris and writing partner Reg McKay. When Reg passed away in 2009, Paul got on with his life. A film The Wee Man was based on one of his books and released in 2013.

Paul wanted to pay tribute to Reg while revisiting the notion that he still had things he wanted to say.

Paul Ferris became a professional footballer and at the age of 16 was the youngest ever to play in Newcastle United's first team.
