    About this ebook

    In different corners of the world, four high-profile figures are assassinated in less than a week. Nobody claims responsibility, and nobody links the deaths. But one thing is certain: each victim has been stalked, sought out and killed with care and preparation. Then a sinister connection is established: a single, blood-tipped rose is sent to each funeral.

    When MI5 come to MI6 to ask for help M brings in his best. At first, a weekend abroad seems tempting to James Bond, especially when he's paired with gorgeous Swiss intelligence officer Flicka von Grusse. But this is a perilous assignment that starts with the mysterious actor David Dragonpol and leads them on a harrowing manhunt through Athens, Milan and Paris . . . and towards an explosive climax.

    John Gardner’s formidable storytelling skills shine in Never Send Flowers, his thirteenth James Bond novel.
