In the books

Bond is sent to Jamaica to look into the disappearance of two MI6 operatives, and the trail ends with Dr Julius No on Crab Key. Dalton’s frontispiece and six colour illustrations carry that story.

Owning it now

The edition is bound in blocked cloth with a pictorial slipcase and measures 9 x 6¼ inches; it is set in Miller. Folio’s UK price is £65 (at the time of writing, October 2026).
