After COLONEL SUN (1968) by Kingsley Amis, John Gardner was the next writer to be asked to write further adventures of James Bond. He wrote, like Fleming, fourteen Bond books, plus novelisations of the films GOLDENEYE and LICENCE TO KILL, from 1981 to 1996. Before becoming an author of fiction in the early 1960s John Gardner was variously a stage magician, a Royal Marine officer, a journalist and, for a short time, a priest in the Church of England. 'Probably the biggest mistake I ever made,' he says. 'I confused the desire to please my father with a vocation which I soon found I did not have.'
In all, Gardner had fifty-five novels to his credit - many of them bestsellers. John Gardner died in 2007.
A raw, gritty, sometimes funny, tale spanning twenty-four tragic hours in the lives of five people on the lower rung of the Scottish drugs scene. As the Garden City dresses itself up to greet the tourist invasion, life for some of the residents is about to become a more meaningful experience. Will Big Dougie survive? Will Wee Dougie and the lovely Shona? Assam is having a seriously bad hair day but the men in blue have it taped. Fortunes are just waiting to be made.
