Overview

JAMES BOND INVESTIGATES A VILLAIN WITH THE POWER TO LAUNCH A NUCLEAR WARHEAD Sir Hugo Drax is a multimillionaire tycoon and war hero, revered by the British public for his new Moonraker missile defense system. But in this classic spy thriller, there’s more to this enigmatic millionaire than he lets on. When M suspects Drax of cheating at a high-stakes game of cards, he is baffled that the patriot would risk his reputation and his rocket program on a game, so he assigns Bond an undercover mission to infiltrate Drax’s circle. As 007 probes the activities at the Moonraker base in the days leading up to the beloved rocket’s maiden launch, he learns the truth about Drax’s battle scars, his wartime allegiances—and his murderous plans for the deployment of Moonraker.
