In a PM from Miss Moneypenny's desk in London, Ian Fleming Publications has presented the new British book covers of Ian Fleming's books for this year's 70th anniversary of Casino Royale, the first James Bond 007 novel written by Fleming. Classification: Gold level (For Your Eyes Only)
The message reads as follows...
“To our agents in the field,
It is no great secret that to many of us here in the service, M has become something of a father figure – a distant figure perhaps, but one that nevertheless we all strive to please, who we hope to make proud through our actions. Whilst he’s not in the habit of accepting gifts on the occasion of Father’s Day (as one Double O discovered to their detriment several years ago – apparently M doesn’t think much of "But Sir, it was just a joke", as an excuse), that’s no reason not to spoil the other (hopefully less prickly) fathers that we have in our lives.
Father’s Day falls on June 18th this year, not far away, and if you’re in need of some gift ideas the team at
Ian Fleming Publications have put together a handy guide to the best Bond (and Bond-adjacent) books to make his day.

In other news, UK-based agents can obtain eBook copies of Anthony Horowitz’s With A Mind To Kill for just 99p on Kindle this month – this offer will only last until June 30th, so get it whilst you can.
Be assured that there’s lots happening behind the scenes here – it’s all on a strictly need to know basis for now, of course, but I think I’ll be able to share something with you soon.
Sincerely,
Miss Moneypenny”
