James Bond in Our Sights: A Close Look at 'a View to a Kill' - Andrew Mcness - 2011 - 124 pages - Author Solutions, 2011 - 9781465382399 DailyMail.com tracked down the 81-year-old's home to a quiet community just outside the coastal city of Arecibo on Puerto Rico's north coast. Blue tarps are seen atop her grandmother's home, which appears to still sustain damage since the passing of Hurricane Maria and Hurricane Irma. A woman who identified herself as AOC's aunt told us, 'We are private people, we don't talk about our family. We don't speak for the community'.
