Maxwell Smart, Agent 86 for Control, has often been confronted by the Forces of Evil. But never before has he been involved in such a vast panorama of intrigue, with the fate of the Free World hanging on his every move.
In Max's possession is the coded KAOS Dooms Day Plan, the only copy in existence, and it is up to him to break the code, decipher the Plan, and save the world from destruction. And this terrifying task must be done on the run, for I.M. Noman, KAOS's master spy, is in pursuit, intent of retrieving the Plan so it can be carried out!

What I’m trying to find out is, what will you charge for a ticket to fly to New York on your airline?” “Tickets fly free,” the clerk replied. “Let me put it another way,” Max said. “Suppose a secret agent came in here, accompanied by a lady cryptographer, and asked you what it would cost for a ticket for the lady cryptographer to fly to New York—what would your

Decipher the code!” He bent closer to Noman. “What is the Dooms Day Plan?” “It’s a menu,” Noman sobbed. “That’s hard to believe,” Max replied. “Try again.” “I tell
twenty-four hours.” Max winced. “Sorry about that, Chief,” he said.
