Synopsis:
A
mysterious unmarked spacecraft engulfs an American space
capsule. America blames the Soviet Union, but England has
tracked the mysterious craft to the Sea of Japan. James Bond
is sent to Tokyo to investigate, but the SIS Head of
Station, Henderson, is murdered before he can pass on any
useful information. Bond kills the assassin and,
substituting himself for the assassin in the escape car, is
taken to a building owned by Osato Electrical and
Engineering Company. He finds there an order form for liquid
oxygen - a key component of rocket fuel, and a photograph,
which directs him to a ship named the Ling Po. While
Bond investigates the Osato Company more fully there are
several attempts on his life, culminating in his kidnap by
Osato. In space, the situation escalates when a Soviet space
capsule is also engulfed by the same unmarked craft. |
