Tilly Masterton is the sister of Jill Masterton, Tilly was once Goldfinger's paid companion and was killed by Goldfinger for betraying him to Bond. Tilly Masterton, who initially gives her name to Bond as Tilly Soames, is trailing Goldfinger to Geneva to kill him in revenge for her sister. She and Bond are captured by Goldfinger and forced to take part in his plans.
Bond makes a few weak attempts to charm Tilly, but she seems more interested in the American criminal Pussy Galore. Tilly is eventually killed by Goldfinger's bodyguard Oddjob, while fleeing from the ambush at Fort Knox.
