Summary
It’s 1957 and James Bond (agent 007) has only just survived his showdown with Auric Goldfinger at Fort Knox. By his side is Pussy Galore, who was with him at the end.
Unknown to either of them, the USSR and the West are in a deadly struggle for technological superiority. And SMERSH is back.
The Soviet counter-intelligence agency plans to sabotage a Grand Prix race at the most dangerous track in Europe, Nürburgring, ‘the Green Hell’. But it’s Bond who finds himself in the driving seat and events take an unexpected turn when he observes a suspicious meeting between SMERSH’s driver and a sinister Korean millionaire, Sin Jai-Seong (AKA Jason Sin).
Soon Bond is pitched into an entirely different race with implications that could change the world. Thrown together with American agent, Jeopardy Lane, Bond uncovers a plan that will bring the West to its knees in a heart-stopping climax.
Trigger Mortis includes original material by Ian Fleming, specifically from a TV treatment entitled ‘Murder on Wheels’. For the first time, Fleming’s own writing features alongside a contemporary author, drawing Bond back to his origins.
Anthony Horowitz recreates the golden age of Bond, packed with speed, danger, strong women and fiendish villains, in this brilliantly authentic adventure.
Anthony Horowitz has written over 40 books including the bestselling teen spy series Alex Rider and was awarded an OBE for his services to literature in January 2014.
