After months of waiting for details regarding the US release of Charlie Higson’s newest Young Bond novel, Double Or Die, a date has finally been revealed: 25 June 2007–reports the Young Bond Dossier.
Young Bond fan ‘Silvereel’ of the Young Bond Forums landed the scoop by simply phoning a bookstore and inquiring about the release (there is still no official announcement of the US release of Double Or Die).

The two previous Young James Bond adventures, SilverFin and Blood Fever, were both published by Miramax Books/Hyperion.
Cover art has not yet been revealed.
