After an unnamed British secret agent retires from his position, he returns to his home in London to pack for a holiday. However, he is soon gassed and loses consciousness. When he awakes hours later, he finds himself in a strange community by the sea known only as the Village. In this place, no names are used and all phones, maps, taxis and other services are "only local." Number Six, as he soon becomes known as, is shown around the Village by its chairman Number Two, who explains that the information in his head is priceless and that he and his superiors want to know why he resigned.
