A British agent is sent to bankrupt a Soviet paymaster at the baccarat table, survives torture after he wins, and falls for the woman sent to help him, only to learn she was a double agent and lose her to her own guilt.

The scent and smoke and sweat of a casino are nauseating at three in the morning.
Casino Royale, Ian Fleming
