Personality
A convicted criminal who escaped from prison by strangling his
psychiatrist, Locque is a cold emotionless killer. Intelligent
and patient in pursuit of his prey, whether it is a kill or the
accomplishment of a particular effect. He is proficient in engaging
and organising the necessary forces to complete a job, retaining
a calm unperturbed exterior completely in control of a situation.
Involvement
Working for Kristatos as a hitman, it was Locque's job to give
the appearance that Columbo was the enemy. Locque did this by
attempting to kill Bond and then assassinating his contact, Ferrara,
and leaving a pin of a white dove (Columbo's insignia). Then Locque
heads a group of Kristatos' men as they run down Columbo's mistress,
Lisl. Had it not been for the intervention of Columbo's men Bond
would probably have been killed as well. Once Bond learns the
truth he tracks Locque down and after a chase with Bond on foot
and Locque in a car, Bond mercilessly kills Locque by kicking
his car, with Locque inside, off a cliff, after returning to him
the pin he left with Ferrara.
