Most of the Matt Helm books have a fairly twisted plot, but this one has a bit more than usual. It's a great action read with some excellent characters & wonderful scenery as only Hamilton can describe it. On the other hand, there are some elements that are being ridden a bit too hard. It's a good thing Helm has a hard head. He gets whacked or takes glancing shots to it almost every book. Possibly over used, although I still like it, is Helm's constant struggles with idealists, many who work for the same government he does. Hamilton seems to have a thing about idealists who lose sight of the big picture. I agree completely, so enjoy his slaps at them. On to the next book (next to the last!)

Appartiene alle SerieThe Matt Helm series (25)
No mission fazes Matt Helm, not even this one--to pose as an oil-rich Texas groom to a bride half his age. The aim: to pick up the trail of an illicit arms shipment in Mexico. If Matt fails, the country could burn in the inferno of revolution, right at America's doorstep. And he doesn't know that he's not only the point man, he's the number one target...

The Frighteners is one of the best of a top-notch series. It b gins with Helm taking a bridegroom's place as the happy couple drive off to their honeymoon in Mexico and leads Helm to armed revolutionaries, deadly assassins, hikes through forbidding territory, gets him shot, captured, and seduced by morevthan one heartbreaker. There's no book on who to trust, whose going to pull a double cross, and wha his ultimate goal in this is.
This story is chock full of action, thrills, gunfire, and is absolutely unquestionably worth your time to read. ( )
