The Infiltrators

Beautiful, intelligent, fresh out of prison-Madeleine Ellershaw is Matt Helm's latest case. Madeleine may have been imprisoned as a spy, but Helm soon realizes that her story isn't so simple. He's got to figure out why she took the rap for her husband nine years ago, what secrets are hiding in her past, and, most difficult of all: keep her alive.

Helm is a genuinely tough and tough-minded protagonist... Your reading diet lacks essential vitamins if you overlook him.
