James Bond is on a mission that will become an obsession.
It all starts the night Flight 229 is torn apart at Washington Airport, killing 435 passengers. On it is the Principessa Sukie Tempesta: once Bond’s lover, still his friend.
Who is behind the violence? And what is their motive? The search for Sukie’s killers turns out to be the most complex and demanding assignment of Bond’s career.
With a new introduction from Raymond Benson.
In ten days, Hong Kong will pass into the hands of the Chinese – and 007 is on his way there to undertake his most dangerous and thrilling mission yet.
In the Australian desert, a nuclear bomb explodes. There are no survivors and no clues about who has made it or detonated it. In England, two police officers are shot dead when they apprehend a cargo vessel in Portsmouth dock. Vast quantities of heroin are later found on board. And in Hong Kong, an explosion rips through one of the colony’s famous floating restaurants, killing the entire Board of Directors of EurAsia Enterprises Ltd, a multi-billion dollar shipping corporation.
The People’s Republic of China is about to resume control after a century and a half of British rule – and the colony is a powder keg waiting to explode. The tension reaches breaking point when a solicitor from one of Britain’s most prestigious law firms is killed in a car bomb at Government House.
These apparently random events are connected – and Bond must find out how and why. From the heady casinos of Macau to the seedy strip clubs of Kowloon, 007’s investigations bring him into conflict with ruthless Triad gangs, a power-hungry Chinese general – and a beautiful night club hostess called Sunni Pei.
All inquiries seem to lead to EurAsia Enterprises Ltd – and its assassinated owner. James Bond is about to come up against one of the most formidable adversaries of his career.
Someone is poisoning British soldiers in Cyprus; the same killer has murdered a British intelligence agent in Athens. James Bond himself barely escapes with his life…
But the secrets behind these and other deaths first start to come to light in Texas, where Bond goes in search of the assassin of M’s friend and lover. Fearful of an international scandal that could engulf both his service and his country, he learns instead of the existence of the Decada.
Held together by an archaic philosophy and their own bizarre rituals, the Decada’s fanatics have stockpiled a terrifying range of poisons and are willing to use them to further their ambitions for power and revenge.
Aided by beautiful, brave Greek Intelligence agent Niki Mirakos, Bond puts himself into the firing line for a last-ditch attempt to stop the Decada before they unleash a horrifying weapon on their helpless prey.
A microdot containing the most important military secret of the century has been stolen. A lethal crime syndicate known as the Union has claimed responsibility. But when the Union’s airborne courier crashes on Kangchenjunga, one of the world’s highest and most treacherous mountains, 007 and an expert team of international climbers begin the perilous ascent of the Himalayan peak to retrieve it. With a sniper in their midst… with the brutal forces of nature against them… James Bond and his men begin a dizzying, cliff-hanging journey along the icy slopes of a frozen hell…
An intricately organised criminal organisation has vowed revenge on the man who thwarted their last coup: James Bond, 007. Their method is ingenious – to force 007 into believing he’s going mad.
The only way Bond can regain his sanity is to embark on a personal mission that takes him from the seedy underbelly of London’s Soho to the souks of Tangier; from a terrorist training camp in Morocco to the clutches of a fatal Spanish beauty with links to an international assassination plot. Each step brings Bond closer to a final, sinister face-to-face confrontation… with himself.
A movie is a perfect hiding place for crime, as Bond finds when he uncovers how a film producer is a front for an international crime conspiracy. The Union – already encountered in the latest two Bond adventures, High Time to Kill and Doubleshot – reveals its connections to the Cannes Film Festival and the Corsican mafia. Before he has finished, Bond will have to save the producer’s exquisite movie-star wife, confront Le Gerant, the brains behind the Union – and settle a score from many years ago.
When a British businessman and his family are killed in Japan, James Bond suspects a mass assassination. Investigating with the help of beautiful Japanese agent Reiko Tamura and his old friend Tiger Tanaka, Bond discovers that two powerful factions controlled by the mysterious terrorist Goro Yoshida are playing God. Between them they have created the perfect weapon, one small and seemingly insignificant enough to strike anywhere, unnoticed. With an emergency G8 summit meeting just days away, it’s a race against time as Bond confronts both man and nature in a desperate bid to stop the release of a deadly virus that could destroy the Western world.
