Le Chiffre. Dr No. Goldfinger. James Bond has faced them all. But now the world is changing, and even 007 has no idea what's coming for him...

It starts with a murdered agent in the Saudi desert.

Only a traitor could have known enough to bring him down.

But even James Bond can't guess at the secret that was worth killing him to keep.

As Bond follows the trail across the globe, he doesn't realise the countdown has already begun.

And hiding in the shadows is a man with more power than he could ever have imagined.

Prepare for a villain unlike any before.

Prepare for KING ZERO.
