Carte Blanche

James Bond returns in a contemporary new thriller by Number One bestselling author Jeffery Deaver. Fresh from Afghanistan, James Bond has been recruited to a new agency. Its aim: to protect the Realm, by any means necessary. The Night Action alert calls Bond from dinner with a beautiful woman. GCHQ has decrypted an electronic whisper about an attack scheduled for later in the week: casualties estimated in the thousands, British interests adversely affected. And 007 has been given carte blanche to do whatever it takes to fulfil his mission.
