Thunderball
by Ian Fleming
At the insistence of M. James Bond, he takes a two-week break at a secluded natural wellness spa. But amid soft teas, tasteless yogurts, and stretchers of the spine, guests affectionately call it "The Rack," Bond tracks down a deadly man with ties to a new secret organization called SPECTRE. When SPECTRE hijacks two A-bombs, a frantic global search for weapons is revealed, and this bomb-containing plane sends the hunchback M, Bond, to the Bahamas for investigation, where this plane will drop a clean drop into the ocean. On the island of paradise, 007 finds a treasure hunt for a rich pleasure seeker and meets Emilio Largo's wonderful mistress, Domino Vilius, otherwise known as SPECTRE's No. 1. But no matter how powerful No. 1 is, it works for someone else: Ernst Stavro Blofeld, a kind of guy with a deadly creative mind.
