Book Summary

In Goldfinger, British secret agent James Bond faces off against one of his most formidable and memorable adversaries: Auric Goldfinger, a wealthy, eccentric gold smuggler with a sinister plan.

The novel opens with Bond returning from a mission in Mexico and becoming suspicious of Goldfinger’s activities. After catching him cheating at cards, Bond is assigned by M (his superior at MI6) to investigate Goldfinger further. His mission leads him across Europe and eventually to the United States.

Bond uncovers Goldfinger’s grand plan—"Operation Grand Slam"—a scheme to break into Fort Knox and render the U.S. gold reserve radioactive, thereby increasing the value of Goldfinger’s own holdings. With the help of a woman pilot named Pussy Galore, Bond attempts to thwart this plot. Along the way, Bond also confronts Oddjob, Goldfinger’s mute and deadly Korean henchman known for his lethal steel-brimmed bowler hat.

The novel combines espionage, suspense, and action, all set against Cold War anxieties and the backdrop of international crime.
