Octopussy: the darling, was a bit surly. The tentacle she lashed around Major Smythe's arm that morning was none to gentle. So when Smythe found himself the sudden quarry of James Bond at cocktail time, the Major had a brilliant, if rather gruesome, inspiration... The Living Daylights: are about to blasted out of a living target on a crowded Berlin street. Crouched behind a .308 International Experimental Target rifle, James Bond sights his victim, makes a split-second decision, and gently squeezes the trigger... The Property of a Lady: a valuable objet d'art, is about to be auctioned at Sotheby's. At the start of the bargaining, the room becomes electric with danger and terror, and nobody but James Bond knows why...
First sentence: 'You know what?' said Major Dexter Smythe to the octopus.
