James Bond travels to the Caribbean to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a secret service team. As he uncovers the astonishing truth about strange energy waves that are interfering with U.S. missile launches, he must battle deadly assassins, sexy femmes fatales, and even a poisonous tarantula.
The search takes him to an exotic tropical island, where he meets a beautiful nature girl and discovers the hideout of Doctor No, a six-foot-six madman with a mania for torture, a lust to kill, and a fantastic secret to hide.
In Jamaica, John Strangways, a British secret service agent, is grabbed by three "blind" beggars. He was checking on "massive interference" with Cape Canaveral rocket launches.
James Bond goes to Jamaica and on to Crab Key. He survives fist fights, a tarantula in his bed, gunshots, and being run off the road.
Finally, with the help of Honey Ryder and Quarrel, a fisherman, Bond reaches the island. A "dragon" tank captures them.
Doctor No plans to sabotage the next missile launch.
Bond breaks out his cell and stops No's radioactive strike as the doctor is electrocuted.
