In an adrenaline-fueled thriller set in the present day, a thirty-year-old James Bond goes head-to-head against one of the most compelling and horrific villains in modern thriller fiction. This isn't the Cold War Bond: it's the best of Fleming and Deaver in one seriously sharp and stylish novel. Bond's license to kill meets Deaver's razor-sharp storytelling in a cat-and-mouse game that takes Bond from the Balkans to London to a searing climax on the African continent.
