Bond and Tatiana take the SPEKTOR (which is booby-trapped to explode on inspection by MI6's top scientists) and board the Orient Express to Europe, pursued by various KGB operatives. The idea is that Grant will kill Bond and the girl, Tatiana Romanova, before releasing the tape, making it seem like Bond killed himself and Tatiana following some kind of sordid sexual tangle.Įverything goes pretty much to plan, as Bond and Tatiana seduce each in Istanbul other before making love in front of a hidden camera. SMERSH decide that their chief assassin, the brilliant and evil Donovan ‘Red’ Grant will carry out the killing, but only before Bond has slept with a Russian agent while on tape, the bait for which was the prized SPEKTOR decoder. The Russian Secret Service wants a real intelligence coup, and hands this task to Bond’s inseparable enemy, SMERSH. In the first third of the book, the planning of Bond’s assassination and humiliation takes place.
