You Only Live Once by Haris Orkin

James Flynn is a mental patient who believes the locked ward of his psychiatric hospital is the headquarters of Her Majesty’s Secret Service. He also believes he’s an expert shot, fluent in four languages, irresistible to women, and a secret agent with a license to kill.

When the hospital is acquired by a new HMO, Flynn is convinced that the Secret Service has been infiltrated by the enemy. He escapes to save the day, and in the process, Flynn kidnaps a young Hispanic orderly named Sancho.

This crazy day trip turns into a very real adventure when Flynn is mistaken for an actual secret agent. Paranoid delusions have suddenly become reality, and now it’s up to a mental patient and a terrified orderly to bring down an insecure, evil genius bent on world domination.
