Daniela Bianchi stars in the title role involving the presumed attempt by some unfriendly government or organization to resurface the sunken American atomic submarine Thresher. The American agents know that Jacques Bergerac's organization is the only one capable of raising the sub but feel that he is above suspicion because he's wealthy! Bianchi's cover as a fashion designer is blown during her first meeting with American agent Ken Clark who quickly undresses her - literally! There are some well done action sequences with the fighting scenes especially well choreographed. I enjoyed the chase scene in the bullfight arena. The movie has some beautifully shot on-location scenes in New York, Spain, London, and France. Unfortunately Ken Clark did not have much on screen charisma. And despite Helga Line's top billing she was given little to do. Bianchi and Bergerac are very good, however. The movie does have a good plot and some decent twists at the end. This is a good Euro spy thriller and, in spite of its shortcomings, it is an enjoyable viewing.
