Hey Goldmember!

The story has some very interesting points to it...no pun intended!

I like the idea of bringing someone back from Bond's past, just to have them die, as a way of hooking him into the story.

Just two small points that you should keep in mind. When I started writing my fanfic, I was told never to allow the narrator to refer to Bond as "James." The characters could call him by his first name, but the narrator can't, if that makes sense.

Also, Bruce's wife sounds a little cold, when she brushes him off with "goodnight." You should try to make her a bit more sympathetic.

The cover is awesome...it says a lot about the story!

So how come M was so wrong with her information?

Just an interesting "By the Way". The group HEART with sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson recorded a song entitled "If Looks Could Kill" on theri 1990 self-titled album "Heart". It's got a good sound to it... maybe even Bondian. Give it a listen.
