Octopussy & The Living Daylights
This book is a collection of previously published short stories. The first, Octopussy, is a conversation between Bond and a treacherous retired Royal Marine Major. The Major, living in Jamaica and seriously ill, is clearly based on Fleming himself, in fragile health when the story was written. The Property Of A Lady is a story based at Sotherby's and The Living Daylights is a story of Bond waiting to assassinate a Soviet sniper. This story is used in a short sequence of the film The Living Daylights, with Timothy Dalton. The latest edition of the paperback also features 007 in New York, previously unpublished in the UK although found in the US edition of Thrilling Cities.
