    SilverFin sees a 13-year-old James Bond investigating mysterious goings-on in a remote Scottish castle where a wealthy American is conducting some very disturbing experiments. This new series of ‘Young Bond’ novels are aimed at capturing a younger demographic of Bond fan, as well as those readers who have made the Harry Potter books such an international sensation.

    SilverFin will be published in the UK by Puffin Books (a division of the Penguin Group), and by Miramax Books in the U.S. A second yet untitled novel is scheduled for November 2005.

    There are a total of five books planned in the ‘Young Bond’ series.
