Scorpius: A James Bond Thriller

When the body of a mysterious woman is found carrying James Bond’s phone number, M calls him in to investigate. But before Bond reaches headquarters, a high-speed chase nearly ends his life. Someone wants him dead.

Bond discovers the woman belonged to ‘The Meek Ones,’ a cult with ties to a wealthy arms dealer. As acts of terrorism plague Britain, Bond races against time to unmask the criminal mastermind behind the horror.

About The Author

John Gardner

After Kingsley Amis, John Gardner was the next writer to be asked by Glidrose (now IFPL) to write further adventures of James Bond. He wrote, like Fleming, fourteen Bond books, plus novelisations of the films GoldenEye and Licence to Kill, from 1981 to 1996.

Before becoming an author of fiction in the early 1960s John Gardner was variously a stage magician, a Royal Marine officer, a journalist and, for a short time, a priest in the Church of England. In all, Gardner had fifty-five novels to his credit - many of them best-sellers - before he died in August 2007.
