Mortis slots in neatly between Fleming’s ‘Goldfinger’ and ‘Thunderball.’
James Bond
has whisked Pussy Galore back to London with him but their affair is rapidly
losing its lustre and a new assignment beckons. Bond must protect England’s
most famous racing driver from Russian sabotage.
During his training and at the
famous Nürburgring, Bond encounters driver Logan Fairfax and motoring journalist
Jeopardy Lane. SMERSH rears its ugly head causing Bond to focus on their
associate Jason Sin, a Korean millionaire who deals death using a pack of
cards. Sin has classified photographs of a U.S. Vanguard rocket and Bond
suspects a plan to destroy it on the launchpad. He doesn’t know how wrong he is.

Mortis is vintage Bond, with all the style, girls, car chases and thrills
Fleming’s (and Horowitz’s) fans could ask for.
For those of you curious to know the 'original material' comes from a script Fleming wrote for a T.V show that never got past the pilot stage.
