This is a series about the growing up of James Bond. (Text is copyrighted by
Ian Fleming Publications.)  In the first book, James is an orphan who is
going to school at Eton and runs into a bully rich kid.  On his vacation,
James goes to Scotland and again runs into the rich kid an his father who
has fixed up an old castle and is doing something strange there.  James and
a friend investigate the disappearance of a local boy and end up at the
castle where the rich kid's father appears to be a maniacal scientist with a
horrible plan.  This 335 page book is a great and thrilling adventure story
which takes place in that calm period between World War I and II.  There is
at least another book in the series and I can't wait to read it.  I had not
hear of this book until one of my students asked me to purchase it.  I
always listen to recommendations.
