'Unshackled from the burden of fidelity to Fleming's character, her book feels a lot freer and more spontaneous than the more conventional Bond continuation novels, while still managing to capture something of Fleming's rollicking spirit' Telegraph
'A boldly innovative James Bond novel . . . [Sherwood] rises impressively to all the challenges of the formula - the cliffhangers, the exotic locations, the wry specificity about lifestyle and weaponry brands, the blend of "kiss kiss" and "bang bang" - while adding ideas such as making Q a quantum computer and putting the climate crisis at her remarkable thriller's centre.'
Sunday Times
'I spy ... a brilliant thriller! Double or Nothing is a clever and utterly compelling addition to the Bond canon. Filled with characters so real we feel we know them, the novel races through its surprising plot twists like an Aston Martin in high gear. Get this book and clear your calendar-though it won't be for long; I read it in one sitting' Jeffery Deaver, author of Carte Blanche, a James Bond novel
'A cleverly plotted and absorbing novel with a fantastic cast of fully rounded characters in this breathtaking new novel. I loved it' Lisa Ballantyne, author of The Innocent One

'Bang up to date and action-packed, Kim Sherwood has taken the world of James Bond and turned it on its head' Charles Cumming, author of BOX 88
