Summary:
SPECTRE hatches its most audacious plot to date when its agents hijack a British Vulcan bomber armed with two atomic bombs. NATO is ransomed for the sum of 100 billion dollars. It's pay or they will drop an atomic bomb on Miami. As the world is held hostage by the threat of a nuclear nightmare, 007 James Bond jumps into action. Racing against the clock he picks up the trail in tropical Nassau. There he meets Emilio Largo, a high-ranking agent of SPECTRE. He, also, meets the stunning Domino, with whom he shares an irresistible attraction. The confrontation builds to an epic battle on the ocean floor. James and his allies must fight in order to avert a catastrophe of immense proportions.
