James Bond, 007, is aboard a luxury cruise liner in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. A beautiful woman, Crème Brûlée, gives him a disk holding information of grave importance. Moments later Bond is dead. The only clue; a sparkly thong around his neck. Is this the work of the transvestite assassin known as Scampi Trail? Meanwhile, British Billionaire, Sir Bernard Shanks is the subject of a series of terrorist attacks around the globe. Are Bond's death and these terrorist attacks linked? MI6 suspect they are and send Bond's protégé, newly promoted agent Double 19, to Hamburg to find out. So begins The Scampi Trail... What follows is a race against time, in a dazzling adventure that spans three continents and five countries, as Double 19 tries to piece the two event together. But is he too consumed by grief over the death of 007 to see the bigger picture? And will his need for revenge get him killed before he can discover the truth? Add in a bevy of beauties, Mexican henchmen, speedboats, helicopters, Aston Martins and a Vodka Martini, stirred not shaken, and all the ingredients are there for a new breed of hero. This year, action has a new number.
