Following up a clue from agent Mimi, Bond persuades his estranged daughter Mata Bond to travel to East Berlin to infiltrate International Mothers' Help, a school for spies that is a Smersh cover operation. Having embezzled Smersh's money, Le Chiffre is desperate for money to cover up his theft before he is executed. Moneypenny recruits 'Coop', a karate expert who begins training to resist seductive women: he also meets an exotic agent known as the Detainer.īond then hires Vesper Lynd, a retired agent turned millionaire, to recruit baccarat expert Evelyn Tremble, whom he intends to use to beat Smersh operative Le Chiffre. He also creates a rigorous programme to train male agents to ignore the charms of women. He then orders that all remaining agents will be named 'James Bond 007', to confuse Smersh. Bond is also told that the 'sex maniac' who was given the name of 'James Bond' when the original Bond retired has gone to work in television (possibly a satirical reference to EON Productions's Bond). He learns that many British agents around the world have been eliminated by enemy spies because of their inability to resist sex. With McTarry dead, Bond is promoted to the head of the British Secret Service (and inexplicably loses his earlier speech stammer). On his way back to London, Bond survives another attempt on his life by a radio-controlled vehicle loaded with explosives. Attempts by a bevy of beauties to seduce Bond fail, but Mimi/Lady Fiona becomes so impressed with Bond that she changes loyalties and helps Bond to foil the plot against him. The rest of the household have been likewise replaced, with Smersh’s aim to discredit Bond by destroying his 'celibate image'. However, the real Lady Fiona has been replaced by Smersh's Agent Mimi. Bond travels to Scotland to return M's remains to the grieving widow, Lady Fiona McTarry. When Bond continues to stand firm, his mansion is destroyed by a mortar attack at the orders of M, who is, however, killed in the explosion. All implore Bond to come out of retirement to deal with Smersh who have been eliminating agents: Bond spurns all their pleas.

Sir James Bond 007, a legendary British spy who had retired from the secret service a few years previously, is visited by the head of British Secret Service, M, CIA representative Ransome, KGB representative Smernov, and Deuxième Bureau representative Le Grand.
