Plot summary

Blood Fever begins with a prologue during which a young girl named Amy Goodenough is aboard her father's yacht in the middle of the Mediterranean when she becomes witness to a band of pirates under the command of Zoltan the Magyar who board the yacht. Zoltan's men ransack the vessel and in the process murder Amy's father who was unwilling to part with his priceless possessions. When Amy fails to get revenge by stabbing Zoltan, she is taken prisoner, but swears she will one day to succeed in achieving vengeance. Composite satellite image of the Mediterranean Sea. ... This article or section does not cite its references or sources. ...


Following the adventure SilverFin, James Bond is back at Eton where he is now a member of a secret risk-taking club known as the Danger Society. As summer vacation looms, James is given the opportunity to go to Sardinia on a field trip with one of his professors, Peter Haight and a colleague, Cooper-ffrench. While there Bond would also be able to visit his uncle, Victor Delacroix (brother to Bond's deceased mother, Monique Delacroix). The Kings College of Our Lady of Eton beside Windsor, commonly known as Eton College or just Eton, is a public school (privately funded and independent) for boys, founded in 1440 by King Henry VI. It is located in Eton, near Windsor in England, north of Windsor Castle, and... For the place in the United States, see Sardinia, Ohio. ...


Prior to leaving, Bond learns of the tragedy that took place on the Goodenough's yacht from his friend, Mark Goodenough, Amy's brother who attends Eton. Bond is also witness to a mysterious group whose followers are marked on both of their hands with an 'M' (double M), which James eventually learns is the mark of the Millenaria, a defunct secret Italian society that has had plans throughout history to restore the Roman Empire.


Once arriving in Sardinia, James and his classmates begin a tour of the country to learn its history, during which Bond is poisoned (though we don't know it at the time) and almost killed. To get away and relax, Bond departs from his classmates to spend time with his Uncle Victor, his artist friend Poliponi, and his teenage servant Mauro. While there Victor is host to the Count Ugo Carnifex, a man who is later identified as the leader of the reorganized Millenaria that plans once again to restore the glory of the Roman Empire. Carnifex achieves the funding for such a task as well as for his palace located high in the mountains of Sardinia and his lavish lifestyle by hiring pirates such as Zoltan the Magyar to plunder valuable items; however, Carnifex is a fraud who cannot actually afford to compensate his "employees". Additionally, when Zoltan arrives at Carnifex's palace, Carnifex declares ownership over Amy Goodenough, much to the great annoyance of Zoltan, whom during his travels to Sardinia had formed a unique and strange bond with Amy.


Later Bond is once again reunited with his classmates who are now in a town near Carnifex's palace. During one night, Bond sneaks into the palace and finds Amy's cell, but is unable to rescue her and instead informs Peter Haight. Things go bad, however, when Haight reveals himself to be a loyal servant of Carnifex and had earlier attempted to poison and kill James for asking too many questions about the Millenaria. Carnifex subsequently has James tortured by strapping him down, spraying him with a perfume, and allowing the mosquitoes to have a field day; Carnifex betting that at some point one of them will be a carrier of malaria. Suffering through the excruciating pain, Bond is later rescued by Mauro's sister, Vendetta who continually kisses him, to his embarrassment. Malaria is a vector-borne infectious disease caused by protozoan parasites. ...


Having put up with Carnifex for as long as he could bear, Zoltan turns against Carnifex by flooding his palace leaving it in ruins and drowning the Count. Just prior, Bond sneaks into the palace with the help of Vendetta, much to her dismay, to rescue Amy. Vendetta is reluctant to led Bond go, but he kisses her to change her mind. After the destruction of the palace, Bond and Amy return to Victor Delacroix's villa, but are ambushed on the way by Peter Haight. Bond and Amy are saved, however, by Zoltan the Magyar who gives his life for their protection in the process. The grief-stricken Amy hugs Bond for comfort.


Amy and Bond arrive at Victor's villa. After swimming and lying on the beach naked, they go up together. However, Jana Carnifex, Ugo's sister, is waiting for them. Bond tricks her, however, by jumping off the rock, with Victor to distract her. She slips and falls into a bed of sea urchins, where she finally dies from the pain and poison. As Bond and Amy wade to the surface, Amy suddenly steps on a sea urchin. Bond knows exactly how to remove it (and the text implies they share a kiss) due to what happened earlier in the book.


Trivia

  • Blood Fever's working title according to Charlie Higson was Double M. Other rejected titles were Blood Sport, Blood Sisters, Death Sting, The Zodiac Web, Dance Before You Die, and Vendetta.[3]
  • In Chapter 17 the villain hosts a dinner party where among the attendees is "Armando Lippe from Lisbon." This is the father of Count Lippe from the Ian Fleming novel Thunderball. Oddly, the last name "Lippe" only appears in the UK edition. In the U.S. edition the line has been changed to "Count Armando from Lisbon."[4]
  • The German edition is titled "Zurück kommt nur der Tod" (Only Death Returns).

For other uses, see Lisbon (disambiguation). ... Thunderball is the eighth novel by Ian Fleming based on the fictional British Secret Service agent Commander James Bond. ...

Fever: Encyclopedia of Cancer (883 words)
Fever associated with cancer can generally be categorized into four major causal groups: infection, tumors, allergic reactions to a drug, or allergic reaction to blood components in transfusion therapies.
Fever in a patient with neutropenia (low white blood cell count) represents the potential for a critical, life-threatening situation, and treatment should begin as quickly as the patient can reach the emergency room.
The allergic responses manifesting in drug-or blood-associated fever may be treated by various methods: antihista-mines and acetaminophen may be administered prior to drug therapy or blood transfusion therapy; discontinuing the present drug and choosing alternate medication may be required; blood may require irradiation or removal of white blood cells from the donor blood.
