In 2007, James Bond is sent to Tripoli posing as an international arms dealer in order to capture a terrorist and expose the group he represents. But this mission--on behalf of the despot Muammar Gaddafi who has recently allied himself with NATO in the War on Terror--brings him face to face with an enigmatic jihadi, a beautiful revolutionary, and a powerful diplomat whose motives are never less than a mystery. Now Bond must navigate a treacherous world of enemies, allies, soldiers, and spies to complete his mission.
