Maak kennis met James Bond, de meest beroemde spion ter wereld, in deze klassieker van Ian Fleming. James Bond is gemarkeerd voor de dood door de Sovjet-inlichtingendienst SMERSH in deze meesterlijke spionagethriller. SMERSH staat voor "Dood aan Spionnen" en er is geen geheim agent die ze liever willen beschamen en vernietigen dan 007. Maar het vangen van de meest dodelijke agent van de Britse geheime dienst vereist een lokmiddel dat zelfs hij niet kan weerstaan. Tatiana Romanova, een betoverende Russische spionne, is de sleutel tot hun plan; haar "desertie" is een val die met klokwerkprecisie is ontworpen. Haar missie: Bond verleiden en vervolgens naar het Westen vluchten met de Oriënt Express. In de schaduw wachten twee van Flemings meest levendig getekende schurken: Red Grant, de dodelijkste huurmoordenaar van SMERSH, en de sinistere operatieschef Rosa Klebb - vijf voet vier inch pure moordkracht. Vol actie en intrige is "From Russia with Love" een van de meest geliefde boeken in de Bond-canon.

Drax bereidt de lancering van Moonraker voor, het grootste, dodelijkste wapen ter wereld. En Engeland zal daar zeker niet beter van worden ...

Op een stormachtige avond dringen twee onguur uitziende types binnen en raakt Vivienne verwikkeld in een angstig avontuur.

Mr. Big smokkelt Britse piratenschatten vanuit een afgelegen Jamaicaans eiland naar New York en leidt de opbrengsten naar Moskou. Met hulp van Solitaire, de mooie en mysterieuze Creoolse waarzegster van Mr. Big, en zijn oude vriend Felix Leiter, moet 007 de schuilplaats van de misdaadheer vinden, zijn operatie saboteren en de piratenschat terugvorderen voor Engeland. Van de jazzclubs in Harlem tot de haaienrijke wateren van de Florida Everglades, Moord onder water stuurt Bond recht in het exotische avontuur.

Ian Flemings twaalfde James Bond-roman. Het tragische einde van James Bonds laatste missie – te danken aan Ernst Stavro Blofeld – heeft 007 tot een gebroken man gemaakt en van weinig nut voor de Britse Inlichtingendienst. M besluit dat de enige manier om zijn beste agent uit zijn lethargie te halen, is om hem op een onmogelijke diplomatieke missie naar Japan te sturen. Bonds contact daar is de formidabele Japanse spionnenleider Tiger Tanaka, die bereid is zaken te doen met het Westen als Bond een van zijn vijanden zal vermoorden: een mysterieuze Zwitserse botanicus genaamd Dr. Guntram Shatterhand. Shatterhand is echter niet wie hij lijkt, en zijn ondoordringbare fort – bekend bij de lokale bevolking als het 'Kasteel van de Dood' – is een doolhof van vallen waar geen enkele gaijin ooit is doorgedrongen. Maar door rigoureuze ninja-training, en met wat hulp van de mooie en bekwame Kissy Suzuki, weet Bond toegang te krijgen tot Shatterhands schuilplaats. Binnenin loert de zekere ondergang door de handen van 007's bitterste vijand – of een laatste kans om ultieme wraak te nemen.
