THE COMPLETE LITERARY 007 - New Bond novel news

Jeffrey Deaver's new Bond novel, code named Project X, now has an official title -  Carte Blanche will be published this May and further details have emerged. Bond will apparantly be back behind the wheels of a Bentley.

'In the world of espionage, giving an agent carte blanche on a mission comes with an enormous amount of trust and constantly tests both personal and professional judgement. Part of the nonstop suspense in the novel is the looming question of what is acceptable in matters of national and international security. Are there lines that even James Bond should not cross?

'The novel will maintain the persona of James Bond as Fleming created him and the unique tone the author brought to his books, while incorporating my literary trademarks: detailed research, fast pacing and surprise twists.' - Jeffery Deaver

CARTE BLANCHE takes place in the present day over a short period of time, and sees Bond visit three or four exotic locations around the globe, one of which is Dubai.
