From Russia With Love (Paperback)
Ian Fleming
Synopsis "From Russia With Love (Paperback)"
SMERSH, the Soviet counterintelligence agency, plans to commit a grand act of terrorism in the intelligence field. For this, it targets British secret service agent James Bond. Due in part to his role in the defeat of Le Chiffre, Mr. Big and Hugo Drax, Bond has been listed as an enemy of the Soviet state and a "death warrant" has been issued for him. His death is planned to precipitate a major sex scandal, which will run through the world press for months and leave his and his service's reputation in tatters. Bond's killer is to be SMERSH executioner Red Grant, a psychopath whose homicidal urges coincide with the full moon. Kronsteen, SMERSH's chess-playing master planner, and Colonel Rosa Klebb, head of Operations and Executions, devise the operation. They persuade an attractive young cipher clerk, Corporal Tatiana Romanova, to falsely defect from her post in Istanbul, claiming to have fallen in love with Bond after seeing his file photograph

Fleming escribió otros doce libros de James Bond, dos obras de no ficción y el clásico infantil Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Los libros de Bond han vendido más de sesenta millones de copias y han recibido elogios de figuras como Raymond Chandler, quien llamó a Fleming "el escritor de novelas de suspense más contundente y motivador de Inglaterra" y el presidente Kennedy, quien admitió que Desde Rusia con amor, era uno de sus libros favoritos. Los libros inspiraron una serie de adaptaciones cinematográficas de gran éxito, que comenzó en 1961 con el estreno de Dr. No, protagonizada por Sean Connery como 007.
