About this listen

The third installment in the legendary Matt Helm thrillers

A year after having been reactivated as a spy, Matt Helm receives a message from his ex-wife asking for his aid. The threat is an enemy agent named Martel, disguised as a mob hit man. To protect his family, Helm must remove the threat before his own children pay the ultimate price.

Originally released in the era of the James Bond novels, the Matt Helm novels were considered grittier and more realistic than Bond, garnering them critical praise and ardent fans.

One of the better books as it is short and takes place over a short time period. The story might have been better if it hadn't relied on the ex wife marrying another similar character. Good story and worth a listen.

Good Story

You can tell things have moved on from the 60’s just by listening to this book. This is the third story in the series I’ve listened to back to back but I’ve started to dislike Eric as a character. His various conquests (no matter the age) is getting a bit boring and this story was a bit confusing at times. As is the fact he keeps pretending to not be a stone cold killer only to change his mind at the last moment when it could have happened much earlier. To me he seems to be the epitome of a male chauvinistic pig!

Worth a listen but not stood the test of time
