The Tigre is an advanced piece of flying hardware - a remarkable stealth helicopter - and it has been stolen from right under Bond's nose. The man responsible is Janus, a powerful and ambitious Russian leader who is no longer troubled by ideology. His ambitions are money and power: his normal business methods include theft and murder. And Janus's associates are even more dangerous than him. Once Xenia worked for the KGB. Now she is a beautiful and lethal weapon in Janus's armoury and Bond is her target. But Janus has underestimated 007. He could just turn out to be his most determined enemy.
About the Author
After Colonel Sun (1968) by Kingsley Amis, John Gardner was the next writer to be asked 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. Probably the biggest mistake I ever made, he says. I confused the desire to please my father with a vocation which I soon found I did not have.
In all, Gardner had fifty-five novels to his credit - many of them bestsellers. John Gardner died in 2007.
