Following his adventures in the Scottish Highlands, James Bond is back at Eton, where he has joined the risktaking Danger Society. Summer vacation is on the horizon and James is looking forward to the school trip to the beautiful Italian island of Sardinia, and the opportunity to spend some time with his reclusive cousin Victor. But all is not as it appears. James soon discovers that the seemingly peaceful island harbors some strange secrets. Before long, Victors house has been ransacked and important pieces of artwork have been stolen. James learns that the Millennariaa ruthless Roman society long thought to be extinguishedis still active. He suspects the impetuous millionaire Count Ugo Carnifex may be behind it. But one of his teachers has been acting strangely as well. As a young girls life hangs in the balance, its up to James to uncover an intricate conspiracy that will take him headtohead with enemies more ruthless than he could have ever imagined.
