- SynopsisThe criminal organisation, Spectre, devises a plot to capture Lektor, a Russian decoding machine, and at the same time dispose of British agent, James Bond. With the help of Tatiana, a Russian coding clerk at the Soviet Embassy in Istanbul, who is unwittingly working for Spectre, Bond steals Lektor and escapes with her on the Orient Express. Spectre's plans miscarry when Bond kills their agent on the train. They evade pursuit by helicopter and motor launches and foil a final attack in Venice when they think they have reached safety.
