Product Description

Product Description

Vivienne Michel is in trouble. Trying to escape her tangled past, she has run away to the American backwoods, winding up at the Dreamy Pines Motor Court. A far cry from the privileged world she was born to, the motel is also the destination of two hardened killers – the perverse Sol Horror and the deadly Sluggsy Morant. When a coolly charismatic Englishman turns up, Viv, in terrible danger, is not just hopeful, but fascinated. Because he is James Bond, 007; the man she hopes will save her, the spy she hopes will love her …

From the Publisher

With a new introduction by Nick Stone.

2.0 out of 5 stars eats,shoots and leaves, 6 Nov 2008
By D. Hodson (Torbay, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've always found the James Bond novels much better than you might imagine they would be.Well written,tightly plotted and full of detail. This one however is a bit of a novelty.Written from the perspective of the heroine,imperiled in a backwoods motel, the drama of the hostage situation plays far too small a part compared to the backstory of the girl.The feel is of a short story padded out to meet a publishing contract. As a Fleming fan one hopes there aren't too many mysogonist gaffes especially when writing from a feminine perspective and only the line 'All women love semi-rape' grates.Interestingly Fleming also shows himself already well ahead in the product placement game. In a note Bond leaves the girl after an early morning runner he calmly recommends Guerlain's "Fleurs des Alpes' instead of Camay. The big Jessie.
