As James Bond's (Daniel Craig) latest mission goes horribly wrong and agents around the world are exposed, Mi6 comes under attack, forcing M (Dame Judi Dench) to relocate the agency. These events see her authority and position challenged by Gareth Mallory (Ralph Fiennes), the new Chairman of the Intelligence and Security Committee. With Mi6 now compromised from both within and without, M is left with one ally she can trust: Bond. 007 is taken to the shadows, aided only by field agent Miss Eve Moneypenny (Naomie Harris), following a trail to the mysterious Tiago Rodriguez, A.K.A. Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem), whose deadly and hidden motives have yet to be revealed.
