The Swedish paperback edition of the latest James Bond novel, SOLO by William Boyd, is published. The novel was first published in the UK on 26th September 2013. (The Swedish hardback edition was published on 28th April 2014.)
It is 1969 and James Bond is about to go solo, recklessly motivated by revenge.
A seasoned veteran of the service, 007 is sent to single-handedly stop a civil war in the small West African nation of Zanzarim. Aided by a beautiful accomplice and hindered by the local militia, he undergoes a scarring experience which compels him to ignore M's orders in pursuit of his own brand of justice. Bond's renegade action leads him to Washington, D.C., where he discovers a web of geopolitical intrigue and witnesses fresh horrors.
Even if Bond succeeds in exacting his revenge, a man with two faces will come to stalk his every waking moment.
"One of the best James Bond novels since Ian Fleming's classic books about the British secret agent. 4 of 5 FSWL hearts." -
Anders Frejdh
