Roger Moore finds himself immersed in the world of heroin, voodoo and black magic in his debut as Bond.

A zoology professor leads a group on a South American expedition in search of a lost world of prehistoric animals. They battle giant insects and cannibalistic Indians on a flight through subterranean caverns.

Shortly after an important drugs bust, CIA Agent Felix Leiter is married, but when the drug lord he arrested escapes, kills his wife and mutilates Leiter his old friend British Agent James Bond seeks revenge. When "M" orders 007 to drop the matter and start a new assignment, Bond deserts her Majesty's Secret Service and embarks on a world wide personal vendetta to kill those responsible.

Roger Moore is Dr. Judd Stevens, a rather meek Chicago psychiatrist whose patient is killed while wearing a jacket borrowed from Stevens. After Stevens' secretary is brutally slain, Lieutenant McGreavy (Rod Steiger) is certain that Stevens is guilty and is ready to prove it, but when his vendetta gets too obvious, he is taken off the case. That leaves his partner Angeli (Elliott Gould), a much more sympathetic cop, to continue on with the investigation. Even then, the killings continue, so Stevens gives up on the police and goes for help to a wacky P.I. (Art Carney) who lives surrounded by clocks and at first seems like a hopeless nitwit. As Stevens continues in his pursuit of the killers, life is complicated by a Mafia bride who seeks his professional help and clues that lead increasingly to the Mafia and cops on the take.
