In The Retaliators, Matt Helm had twenty thousand stashed into his bank account and had to find the killer of another agent before he got picked-off too. Here, Matt Helm is back as a "counter- assassination agent" hired by the US government to get rid of threats to the system. Life isn't what you think, and for Matt, this latest instalment of the Matt Helm novels has him wake up to a woman called Kitty who tells him he is in fact Paul Madden, a successful free-lance photographer who will marry her whether he likes it or not!
