The Story:You Only Live Twice begins eight months after the murder of Tracy Bond, James Bond’s wife, which occurred at the end of the previous novel, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1963). Bond is drinking, gambling heavily and making mistakes on his assignments when, as a last resort, he is sent to Japan on a semi-diplomatic mission. While there he is challenged by the head of the Japanese Secret Service to kill Dr. Guntram Shatterhand. Bond realises that Shatterhand is Ernst Stavro Blofeld—the man responsible for Tracy’s death—and sets out on a revenge mission to kill him and his wife, Irma Bunt.
