- A British spy ship has struck a mine and has sunk in Albanian waters. On board was a vital piece of defense equipment, the ATAC transmitter. Bond has to recover it before the Russians get hold of it and use it for no good. The murder of Havelock, a marine archaeologist helping MI6 locate the wreck, gives Bond a lead. He goes after the assassin and encounters the late archaeologist's daughter, Melina, who is on the quest for revenge. She and Bond discover another villain, Emile Locque. But who is he working for? A gang boss called Columbo? Or Kristatos, a legitimate shipping magnate? Bond and Melina, menaced by killers at every turn, need some quick answers.
