Book description
Two female agents of Operation Cream Cake - double agents and honey
traps against the KGB - are murdered. Bond must find the others and
conduct them to safety before they meet a similar fate.
In a race against time, Bond travels to Ireland and the KGB is soon on
the scene. But all is not as it seems and soon Bond finds he needs all
his wits to negotiate a labyrinth of double-crossing that is to lead him
to a bewildering showdown in a remote corner of the Kowloon province of
Hong Kong, where, weaponless, he is hunted by four assassins.
No Deals, Mr. Bond is the sixth in the bestselling series created by
John Gardner, and one of the most original and unpredictable. 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.
