[Matt Helm 01] • MATT HELM · the War Years

Matt Helm is a government assassin, working for a secret agency first formed during WWII to carry out assassinations in support of the war effort in Europe, and later continued against America's enemies. He is the star of 27 novels written by Donald Hamilton from 1960 through the 1990s. Although a cold-blooded killer, Matt Helm has a superb sense of humor, a sharp opinion on just about everything, and is quite capable of falling in love (or lust) during his missions. This book is about his WWII experiences, from his initial recruitment into the agency, his training, and his missions during the war.

This book is a pastiche authorized by Donald Hamilton's son, Gordon Hamilton.
