- Two atomic submarines belonging to the British and Soviet navies have vanished. MI6 and the KGB assign their best agents to the case. And so James Bond, 007, finds himself working with Major Anya Amasova, Agent Triple X. Bond and Anya learn that plans for a new submarine tracking system are on sale for the highest bidder. Suspecting a link with the missing subs, they resolve to get hold of the plans. However, they face awesome competition from a monstorous killing machine called Jaws and his boss, Karl Stromberg. Stromberg intends to initiate WWIII and live in an underwater civilization while the rest of the world drowns.
