Publisher's Synopsis
James Bond is dead!
Unwittingly caught up in the glamorous, dangerous world of international espionage, Delphine, a former high-class escort, kills a foreign 'diplomat' after he tries to rape her.
The Reluctant Assassin follows the mother of twin five-year-old girls in her global pursuit of a psychotic despot who attempts to take over the world by flooding it with mobile phones that never need recharging.
If your nation signs a contract with the madman, you're safe. Refuse, and the nuclear-powered phones that offer unlimited power to run everything from heavy industry to the household toaster, can be turned into bombs at the flick of a switch.
She assumes the mantle of 007 and crosses swords with the world's most-feared assassin while trying to rescue 1,000 Uyghur children trapped in a Chinese mine.
