I think the only one I ever read was Casino Royale (not 100% sure that was the title, but I think that was it) because it was set in my home town. Apparently, in the time period in which Fleming was writing, Troy, NY, was a hotbed of Mafia activity.
And now I live just down the road from Apalachin, location of the infamous Mafia bust that captured so many of the high-level players of the east coast.
There may be some thematic correlation there. Or it may just be a weird coincidence.
