A spy is dead. A legend is born.

Determined to uncover the truth, James Bond enters a world of fast cars, grand casinos and luxury yachts. But beneath the glamour, he soon encounters a dangerous network of organised crime.

It's time for Bond to earn his licence to kill. He must find those responsible and unravel their devastating plan - before he becomes their next victim...

A page turner

This was really good. I enjoyed the story and became fully immersed in the world of Bond. A long time Fleming fan I think Horowitz has captured the essence well.

AMAZING NARRATION.

While Bond books aren’t really my thing but this story is actually really engaging and enjoyable. Matthew Goode is a brilliant narrator complete with amazing accents and I really hope he does some more audiobooks. Would Recommend.

Matthew Goode is perfect for James Bond

Matthew Goode is perfect for James Bond. He’s just got that thing about him that all Bond men are meant to have. And Horowitz does justice to Fleming work.
