A review by shermanberry
Carte Blanche by Jeffery Deaver

3.5

This is really a 3.5 to be fair. Almost a 4 but that would be James Bond bias kicking in.

You know exactly what you’re in for with James Bond stories. This one is no exception with exotic locations, villainous masterminds, cameos from old friends, gadgets and tension galore.

I’m a big fan of Jeffery Deaver’s thrillers and he does his reputation no harm here. He takes on the James Bond mantel with respect and panache giving us a modern tale with plenty of his trademark twists.
