FOREVER AND A DAY - Anthony Horowitz

A spy is dead. A legend is born.

This is the story of the birth of a legend, in the brutal underworld of the French Riviera.

When we began working on the cover design for Forever and a Day, so many icons and ideas came to mind, with such a wealth of imagery associated with Bond we looked at a huge variety of options. A boat plays a major part in the plot of the book and we considered images of motor yachts in the Riviera but they tended to look too much like a travel brochure. We looked at photographs of yachts taken from odd and unexpected angles, and when we found images from above, the idea of it resembling a bullet suddenly clicked. The design uses well-known Bond iconography but also hints at the plot of Forever and a Day. Underneath the jacket we have echoed the design with a gold bullet and clear foil wake.

Anthony Horowitz’s new James Bond novel Forever and a Day, the explosive prequel to Casino Royale, is published today by Jonathan Cape.

In celebration of this new James Bond novel, Vintage have also released a special paperback edition of Casino Royale with an introduction by Anthony Horowitz.
