About the Author
Ian Fleming (1908-1964), creator of the world's best-known secret agent, is the author of fourteen James Bond books. Born in London in 1908 and educated at Eton and Sandhurst, he became the Reuters Moscow correspondent in 1929. In the spring of 1939, Fleming went back to Moscow as a special correspondent for the London Times. In June of that same year, he joined Naval Intelligence and served throughout World War II, finally earning the rank of Commander, RNVSR (Sp.). Much of the James Bond material was drawn directly from Fleming's experiences as an intelligence officer. Later, Fleming became a consultant on foreign affairs for the London Sunday Times, by which time he had become far better known as the creator of James Bond.
Though James Bond had known a lot of women, Vivienne Michel was different from them all. She was a beautiful girl with a fascinating sensual past, but the minute she opened the door of the dreamy Pines Motor Court, she had very little future. They came out of the stormy night like sadistic demons- Sol Horror, a lizard like killer with cruel erotic tastes, and Sluggsy Morant, totally hairless, totally evil and totally deadly with a handgun. Only one man could save her from this murdeous nightmare. This Vivienne Michel's own James Bond story, the unforgettable drama of The Spy Who Loved Me.
