Summary
Secret agent OSS 177, alias Hubert Bonisseur de la Bath, is sent to Rio
de Janeiro to look into a series of political killings in South
America. The victims includes several heads of state who were
blown up by suicide bombers. Posing as a tourist, OSS 117
is greeted at the airport by Consuela, the attractive secretary of CIA
agent Thomas Ellis. OSS 117’s investigation leads him to a
plantation owned by the wealthy Leandro. The latter belongs to
the organisation that is responsible for the assassinations, but he is
not the real enemy...
