James is on home soil when he receives a package with a message from beyond the grave. The package's mysterious contents put James at the heart of a long-running plot that, if it runs its course, will paint London's streets red with blood. Not only will James have to fight to stay alive and save the country he loves, but to clear the Bond family name, which he holds so dear. The stakes couldn't be higher, and James doesn't know who he can trust...

Well two average Young Bond books and two fantastic ones feature in Steve Cole's Young Bond. Red Nemesis concludes the series with an action packed treasure hunt and a Russian sleeper cell plot all tying back into something Bond's father stumbled across. Teaming up with Anya Kalashnikova, James and Anya work to avenge their families and protect Britain from treachery.

This was really enjoyable. I would've liked to see more of Charmian and Perry but at least they appeared. I loved the treasure hunt game James and his father used to play and that he keeps it going with Perry. Anya was yet another strong, fierce girl character - this series only has those types which is beyond awesome. I would've loved to see more of the ballerina angle but show more I enjoyed what there was.

The author notes at the end were interesting and enlightening as to Steve Cole's thoughts while writing. I found it interesting that he was trying to show the transition of Bond's isolation and kind of prepare readers for reading the original series in a way. Since I will be reading the original series next it can only be a plus.

4 stars, a great end to a great series.
