Forever and a Day, the author’s second 007 novel, will make use of material left behind by Ian Fleming to imagine Bond’s first mission
Drawing from original material left behind by Ian Fleming, Anthony Horowitz is writing a prequel to the first ever James Bond novel, Casino Royale.
Forever and a Day, which is authorised by the Fleming Estate, will find Horowitz “exploring what might have been Bond’s first mission and imagining some of the forces that might have turned him into the iconic figure that the whole world knows”, the novelist said.
According to publisher Jonathan Cape, the novel will begin when the body of the previous agent with the designation 007 is discovered floating in the waters off Marseille, “killed by an unknown hand”. James Bond will step up to fill his place.
