An Algerian drug runner is brutally executed on the outskirts of Paris, prompting MI6 to recall Agent 007 from his sabbatical in Rome. The head of MI6, M, assigns Bond to shadow the enigmatic Dr. Julius Gorner, a power-hungry pharmaceutical magnate with a troubling interest in opiate derivatives, both legal and illegal.
