Ian Flemming's book Casino Royale is the first book in the James Bond Book Series. James Bond, a fancy English spy is hired to do some work and take down the two villains of the book Vesper and LeChiffre, both very powerful people. He works through a casino, playing games with the bad guys, losing at first but then bouncing back to victory. Through kidnappings and suicides, Flemming captivates the readers with this thriller leaving you questioning what’s next. I believe this was his plan all along. He as the author wanted to draw you in by introducing this not so confident spy whos mission if failed, could put the whole world in jeopardy. Flemming takes you on this adventure with James Bond through his head, having every action laid out in a step by step pattern, to take the reader right there next to Bond. There is also a cannot miss love story between James and his partner Vesper, a beautiful spy sent from a different agency, which will help keep you at the edge of your seat as if exciting spy missions aren’t entertaining enough. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has a taste for thrillers and doesn't mind abundant detail. Advice to the reader: while you read Ian Flemmings first of many masterpieces, try to visualize it (which will be easy to do with all the imagery and intense detail), so you will be able to connect the book to the motion picture if you, or should I say WHEN you decide to watch the movie.
M, the Head of the British Secret Service, assigns James Bond, 007, to play against and bankrupt Le Chiffre, the paymaster for a SMERSH-controlled trade union, in a high-stakes baccarat game at the Royale-les-Eaux casino in northern France. As part of Bond's cover as a rich Jamaican playboy, M also assigns as his companion Vesper Lynd, personal assistant to the Head of Section S (Soviet Union). The CIA and the French Deuxième Bureau also send agents as observers. The game soon turns into an intense confrontation between Le Chiffre and Bond; Le Chiffre wins the first round, cleaning Bond out of his funds. As Bond contemplates the prospect of reporting his failure to M, the CIA agent, Felix Leiter, gives him an envelope of money and a note: "Marshall Aid. Thirty-two million francs. With the compliments of the USA." The game continues, despite the attempts of one of Le Chiffre's minders to kill Bond. Bond eventually wins, taking from Le Chiffre eighty million francs belonging to SMERSH.
Desperate to recover the money, Le Chiffre kidnaps Lynd and tortures Bond, threatening to kill them both if he does not get the money back. During the torture, a SMERSH assassin enters and kills Le Chiffre as punishment for losing the money. The agent does not kill Bond, saying that he has no orders to do so, but cuts a Cyrillic 'Ш' for шпион (shpión, Russian for spy) into Bond's hand so that future SMERSH agents will be able to identify him as such.
Lynd visits Bond every day as he recuperates in hospital, and he gradually realises that he loves her; he even contemplates leaving the Secret Service to settle down with her. When he is released from hospital they spend time together at a quiet guest house and eventually become lovers. One day they see a mysterious man named Gettler tracking their movements, which greatly distresses Lynd. The following morning, Bond finds that she has committed suicide. She leaves behind a note explaining that she had been working as an unwilling double agent for the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs. SMERSH had kidnapped her lover, a Polish Royal Air Force pilot, who had revealed information about her under torture; SMERSH then used that information to blackmail her into helping them undermine Bond's mission, including her own faked kidnapping. She had tried to start a new life with Bond, but upon seeing Gettler—a SMERSH agent—she realised that she would never be free of her tormentors, and that staying with Bond would only put him in danger. Bond informs his service of Lynd's duplicity, coldly telling his contact, "The bitch is dead now.
