Colonel Sun

The first ever Bond continuation originally published by Jonathan Cape in 1968 now finally back in print and published to coincide with the forthcoming Bond film Spectre. . Lunch at Scott's a quiet game of golf a routine social call on his chief M convalescing in his Regency house in Berkshire -- the life of secret agent James Bond has begun to fall into a pattern that threatens complacency... until the sunny afternoon when M is kidnapped and his house staff savagely murdered. The action ricochets across the globe to a volcanic Greek island where the glacial malign Colonel Sun Liang-tan of the People's Liberation Army of China collaborates with an ex-nazi atrocity expert in a world-menacing conspiracy. Stripped of all professional aids Bond faces unarmed the monstrous devices of Colonel Sun in a test that brings him to the verge of his physical endurance.
