On Her Majesty's Secret Service - Ian Fleming

A Lancia Spyder with its hood down tore past him, cut in cheekily across his bonnet and pulled away, the sexy boom of its twin exhausts echoing back at him. It was a girl driving, a girl with a shocking pink scarf tied round her hair. And if there was one thing that set James Bond really moving, it was being passed at speed by a pretty girl.When Bond rescues a beautiful, reckless girl from self-destruction, he finds himself with a lead on one of the most dangerous men in the world—Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the head of SPECTRE. In the snow-bound fastness of his Alpine base, Blofeld is conducting research that could threaten the safety of the world. To thwart the evil genius, Bond must get himself and the vital information he has gathered out of the base and keep away from SPECTRE’s agents.—Goodreads.

King Of The Ants - Charles Higson

''Charlie Higson''s thrillers are major events'' Mark Billingham''Funny, very tough and full of action'' Patricia Highsmith ''Uncoils with wit and imagination'' Time OutIt seemed straightforward enough. Sean had now consumed so much alcohol that everything seemed perfectly reasonable. He''d started planning the job already. The first problem was how to do it. Thirteen thousand pounds in an envelope seems a fair price for a man''s life. Particularly if you don''t know the man, he seems a nonentity, and you quite fancy his wife. And there''s no chance of being caught. Sean is a drifter, working as a building labourer and waiting for something to happen.When Sean is offered easy money to tail someone and even more easy money to dispose of him, it''s all more tempting than you might think. Except when you realize that you''ve been led up the garden path the whole way...King of the Ants is dark, disturbing and violently comic. In the tradition of both Joe Orton and Iain Banks, Charlie Higson pinpoints the casual vagaries of evil and its attendant powers. Unnerving, horribly accurate and wickedly enjoyable, it remains Higson''s finest book.

Her Secret Service - Claire Hubbard-Hall

''Groundbreaking'' Sunday Times''Beautifully written and elegiac . . . a masterpiece'' Damien Lewis, Sunday Times bestselling authorSince the inception of the Secret Service Bureau back in 1909, women have worked at the very heart of British secret intelligence - yet their contributions have been all but written out of history. From encoding orders and decrypting enemy messages to penning propaganda and infiltrating organisations, the women of British intelligence played a pivotal role in both the First and Second World Wars. These true custodians of Britain''s military secrets include Kathleen Pettigrew, personal assistant to the Chief of MI6 Stewart Menzies, who late in life declared ''I was Miss Moneypenny, but with more power'', to Jane Archer, the very first female MI5 officer who raised suspicions about the Soviet spy Kim Philby long before he was officially unmasked and Winifred Spink, the first female officer ever sent to Russia in 1916. Drawing on private and previously classified documents, Hubbard-Hall rescues these women from obscurity, bringing their gripping stories to life to provide a definitive account of women''s contributions to the history of the intelligence services.''A fascinating history of the pivotal role played by women in the British intelligence services. A hugely enjoyable ... Unknown localization key: "more"

His Majesty's Airship - S.C. Gwynne

From historian and bestselling author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist Empire of the Summer Moon comes a “captivating, thoroughly researched” (The New York Times Book Review) tale of the rise and fall of the world’s largest airship—and the doomed love story between an ambitious British officer and a married Romanian princess at its heart.The tragic fate of the British airship R101—which went down in a spectacular fireball in 1930, killing more people than died in the Hindenburg disaster seven years later—has been largely forgotten. In His Majesty’s Airship, S.C. Gwynne resurrects it in vivid detail, telling the epic story of great ambition gone terribly wrong. Airships, those airborne leviathans that occupied center stage in the world in the first half of the 20th century, were a symbol of the future. R101 was not just the largest aircraft ever to have flown and the product of the world’s most advanced engineering—she was also the lynchpin of an imperial British scheme to link by air the far-flung areas of its empire, from Australia to India, South Africa, Canada, Egypt, and Singapore. No one had ever conceived of anything like this, and R101 captivated the world. There was just one problem: beyond the ... Unknown localization key: "more"
