Trigger Mortis: Unlocking Bond - an interactive pop-up experience

To mark the publication of Trigger Mortis, the new James Bond novel, an interactive 1950s style pop-up experience, inspired by author Anthony Horowitz's novel set in 1957, is being placed within Waterstones Piccadilly, London for one week only, from Monday 7th to Sunday 13th September 2015.

Visitors will be transported back to the 1950s, the walls, shelves and tables will incorporate references to Fleming's books, to Bond, to Trigger Mortis, and to the time period; books about the Cold War, space travel and framed prints from the period, plus 50s TV footage. There will be a costumed actor, secret codes and clues to solve, a hidden door leading to an antechamber, and mysterious phone calls...

An audio as well as visual experience, visitors will be able to enjoy Selma star David Oyelowo's reading of Trigger Mortis.
