L'action se passe au Vietnam, les services secrets soupçonnant des activités illicites pratiquées par la Princesse Tchélia Bruskoï et son associé Igor Kourguine, kidnappent la nouvelle secrétaire qui devait se présenter chez ces derniers pour la remplacer par l'agent secret Monique. Celle-ci se met rapidement à la recherche d'indices, mais sa présence provoque la zizanie chez le couple, Igor tente de courtiser Monique et la Princesse devient jalouse. Aidée par les services secrets qui lui fournissent des gadgets pour écouter les conversations (y compris téléphoniques) elle finit par apprendre l'existence d'un mystérieux rendez-vous mais sans en savoir plus. Elle entend également les cris d'une servante que l'on torture, parce que celle-ci prenait en sténo des notes de conversation. Le capitaine Campion qui dirige la mission finit par se faire repérer par les autorités locales et est prié de quitter le pays, celui-ci tente en vain de faire partager ses soupons mais les locaux refusent de l'entendre faute de preuves. Le chef de la police convoque également Monique en lui demandant sous un prétexte futile de quitter le pays. En attendant le bateau qui l'exfiltrera elle reste prisonnière sur un cargo. Elle s'évade par le hublot et rejoint le chef de la mission à la nage. Repartant chez le couple de trafiquants, elle se fait piéger, ces derniers ayant trouvé dans sa chambre du matériel d'espionnage. Elle parvient à s'enfuir à temps alors que les services secrets cernent la demeure, mais le couple s'échappe. Monique en faisant un effort de mémoire pense pouvoir identifier le fameux "contact", un antiquaire, elle se rend sur les lieux avec l'agent Brichet, mais il est trop tard, il ne trouve qu'un cadavre dans les poches duquel ils prélèvent un papier griffonné qui les conduira sur le bateau où le couple tente de s'échapper, la police cette fois convaincue de la culpabilité du couple aidera les agents secrets à se débarrasser des malfaiteurs.

The movie opens at Munich's Oktoberfest. Kendig and his team foil a microfilm transfer to an East German spy. However, they purposely do not apprehend Yaskov. Kendig is summoned to Washington, where his supervisor, Myerson (Beatty), is forcing Kendig into semi-retirement and a desk job because Kendig didn't arrest the Russian. Kendig resists, claiming to be "a field man", and, on his own initiative, takes leave, shredding his file en route. It is days before that is discovered. He goes to Salzburg, Austria to "hear some Mozart" and visit an old friend, Isobel Von Schoenenberg (Jackson). It is here that he seizes on the idea of writing a book exposing all the 'dirty tricks' of the CIA, KGB and other 'spy agencies'. Isobel is horrified to read the first chapter and tells Kendig that they'll all come after him to kill him. Nevertheless, he mails copies of the chapters to the various spy chiefs in the US, Russia, China, France and Great Britain. Soon enough, Myerson and Yaskov are after him, just as he wanted.
