James Bond Collection 1: From Russia with Love, Dr. No, Goldfinger

From Russia With Love: SMERSH is the Soviet organ of vengeance: of interrogation, torture and death. James Bond is dedicated to the destruction of its agents wherever he finds them. Then SMERSH focuses on Bond and, far away in Moscow, a trap is laid for him - a death trap with an enticing lure. Dr. No: M called this case a soft option. Bond can't quite agree. The tropical island is luxurious, the seductive Honey Rider is beautiful and willing, but they are both part of the empire of Dr. No . . . The doctor is a worthy adversary, with a mind as hard and cold as his solid steel hands. Dr. No's obsession is power. His only gifts are strictly pain-shaped. Goldfinger: A friendly game of two-handed canasta that turns out thoroughly crooked. And a beautiful golden girl who ends up thoroughly dead. . . Bond's first encounter with Auric Goldfinger, the world's cleverest, cruelest criminal, teaches him useful lessons. Soon the game will change and the stakes will rise. . . to fifteen billion dollars worth of U.S. gold bullion reserves. But 007 knows that Goldfinger's rules remain brutally simple - "Heads I win, tails you die."
