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.
The life of young Alford Morrison, an accountant with a reputable firm, was swinging along just fine till he was charged with conspiracy to defraud the Revenue. Al was the sort of man who was forever being accused of things but was always innocent. Almost always. His problems were compounded by the drunken admission of his wife Chloe, which started another chain of events that threatened to further destroy his bliss palace. His life, through no fault of his own, had left the tracks and spiraled into a nightmare making him a fugitive from the forces of law and order who, once again, wished to see him behind bars – if they could manage it. But Al had a plan and The Body was his willing accomplice. However, life, that capricious road to our final destiny, had a few surprises in store.
