‘When I come up against a man like this one, I have another motto. It’s “live and let die.”’

Mr Big – gold thief, Lord of the ‘Black Widow’ voodoo cult and top SMERSH operative – is one of the most dangerous opponents Bond has faced. 007’s mission to track him down takes him from the smoky jazz joints of Harlem, to the Florida Keys and on to the lush tropics of the Caribbean. He also finds himself entangled with the raven-haired, fortune-telling Solitaire, who Mr Big is holding prisoner and won’t let go without a fight. The battle of wills comes to a head in Jamaica’s Shark Bay, where Bond must face the deadly teeth of barracuda if he is to capture his biggest fish yet...

Now I'm hearin' that damned Paul McCartney thingie goin' through my head...shut up Paul,!! I'm tryin' to read here.! :lol:
 
Under the Skin by Michel Faber.

I bought this one at the Uni bookshop because I realised I'd travelled all the way in without a book to read on the way home (a 2 hour bus ride - I'd studied for an exam on the way in). I'm only 100 or so pages in, but I'm already completely hooked.
