Cold Fall

John Gardner’s Bond, Book 16

By: John Gardner

Narrated by: Christopher Cazenove

The night that Flight 229 was blown apart upon landing at Washington's Dulles Airport—killing almost 400 passengers aboard—James Bond embarked on a mission that would become an obsession. Who was responsible for destroying the British-owned aircraft? Was it a straightforward act of terrorism, an assassination aimed at only one person, or a move to put the airline out of business? The search for answers has a personal meaning: Bond' s former lover and old friend, the Principessa Sukie Tempesta, is listed as one of the ill-fated passengers.

In this white-knuckle 007 thriller, master spy James Bond undertakes the most complex and demanding assignment of his career. Across continents and through ever-changing labyrinths of evil, Bond follows the traces of clues to an organization more deadly than any terrorist army. What Bond finds could very well spell his own last days.

DO NOT BUY

This is god awful and a waste of money. Buy Cold. Stay far away from this version.

this is in abridged version

well it was my mistake to buy an abridged version. The narrator certainly wasn't my favorite and I am reminded to try a sample before I actually buy the book. unfortunately, and a bridge story has significant gaps and led to a much less enjoyable story.
