CommanderBond.net readers will recall last month that we reported that the paperback edition of Charlie Higson’s By Royal Command would include an exclusive extract of a never-before-released Young Bond story to be included in Danger Society: The Young Bond Dossier, which is due out this October.

With the release of the paperback in the UK today, ‘zencat’ at The Young Bond Dossier has a full report on this brand new story, including the title:
A Hard Man to Kill

As expected, this new short story is set between the events of Hurricane Gold and By Royal Command (Higson first mentioned this way back in October of 2007).

It features James Bond and Aunt Charmain aboard a French ocean liner on their way back to England from Mexico. However, when a villain and mysterious convict show up on the same ship, the journey quickly becomes anything but relaxing…
