The stories all flow together, although you can read them as standalone, but I was really interested in how Fleming in each of his books innovates in some way, he never does the same thing twice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo I\u2019ve tried to be structurally and tonally a bit different. Tonally, I think it\u2019s darker. and structurally, I\u2019ve tried something kind of new and hopefully exciting for the reader.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;headline\" post-header__title=\"\" post-header__title--headline-layout=\"\">\n<ul><li class=\"&quot;heading-1&quot;\"><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/movies\/james-bond-double-or-nothing-movie-adaptations-exclusive-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">James Bond Double or Nothing author isn\u2019t eyeing movie adaptations<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/movies\/double-or-nothing-author-james-bond-novel-exclusive-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Double or Nothing author on writing a Bond novel without James Bond<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<p>She also revealed that she planned the novels as a trilogy from the very beginning and had already mapped out where things will end up after the final instalment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe first thing I wrote was actually the last scene of book three, so I kind of have a roadmap and I know where I\u2019m heading,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I think the more you write a book, the more it tells you what it wants to be.
