Dr No - James Bond 007 (Paperback)
Ian Fleming (author)- 5+ in stock
The sixth outing for 007 is one of the most muscular and exciting, revolving around the elusive Dr No and his nefarious operations on the Caribbean island of Crab Key. Fully loaded with action, glamour and an exotically depicted island paradise, this is the literary Bond at his purest.
'The first shot had been fired. There would be others. And whose finger was on the trigger? Who had got him so accurately in their sights?'
Crab Key island is desolate and remote. So why is Dr No defending it so ruthlessly? Only Bond can uncover the truth, in Fleming's sixth 007 adventure.
