Matt Helm - The Frighteners

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…
