Octopussy and The Living Daylights - audiobook

Published posthumously, this book is an anthology of three novellas featuring the world's best-known secret agent, James Bond. In the first story, "Octopussy," the legendary 007 is sent to Jamaica to deal with a rather odd Englishman. Major Dexter Smythe is a proper fellow living in the lap of luxury, but his fondness for eight-legged creatures has resulted in a dangerous experiment that will put Bond in a precarious position. Bond's mission in "The Living Daylights" is to neutralize the KGB sniper, code-named Trigger, whose assignment is to prevent an important Russian official from defecting. M sends 007 to West Berlin to safeguard Agent 272, but can Bond kill the sniper in time? Trigger is one of Fleming's most tantalizing villains-a shadowy figure who Bond and the listener glimpse but never meet. "The Property of a Lady" finds Bond at an auction tracking down an exotic objet d'art and a deceptive woman.
