About this listen

A prim young lady needs a favor: help her father beat a bum drug rap. But when Dad’s boat detonates outside Miami Harbor, Matt discovers that young Amy isn’t as innocent as she looks. Lured to the Bahamas, he will discover an unlikely pack of fanatics hatching an explosive plan, and that daddy’s little girl is surprisingly deadly.

©1985, 2016 Donald Hamilton (P)2022 Blackstone Publishing and Skyboat Media Espionage Spies & Politics Suspense Thriller & Suspense

10/10 good listen

I wish I'd discovered the Matt Helm series a long time ago. but I'm making up for it now. it will appeal if you like a Reacher or Milton style hero, but cast them back 40 years or so, with Cold War themes and very non PC. but that's part of the appeal.
it's a simple formula, reliably delivered once again by the author, and beautifully performed by the narrator.
Millennials will hate the strong views and occasional arrogance of the hero, but the rest will enjoy the listen.

another great performance of a winning formula
