The Menacers by Donald Hamilton review

The eleventh in the Matt Helm series, this was published in 1968. I've read several books in this series, and usually enjoy them, including this one. 

Helm is sent to Mexico, because of reports of UFOs attacking people.  He is assigned as protection to one of the witnesses, and told to bring her to the U.S. at Los Alamos.  Most importantly, she is not to get into the hands of the Russians.  If that seems likely, he will have to kill her.

I was a little concerned when I saw this was about UFOs that the series was taking a weird turn in the direction of Science Fiction, but as it turned out, it didn't.  Enjoyed reading this one!
