U.K. novelist and screenwriter Anthony Horowitz has dropped a hint about the next 007 James Bond book.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Horowitz revealed on Britain's BBC Radio 4 that he had been given the choice of five treatments for a never produced Bond TV series written by the character's creator Ian Fleming in the 1950s.

The author continued that he eventually picked a short story involving car racing called 'Murder on Wheels'.

Horowitz added that he went down to the Nurburgring in Germany to do research for the novel.

The Bond novel is due to be published in the U.S. by HarperCollins in September 2015, just two months before the as-yet-untitled 24th film in the 007 franchise is released.
