Publisher's summary

A political assasin is ready to make his move. The police department's only clue is a single, perfectly typed bomb threat. And worse yet, the police aren't sure they can trust their own people. In a few short days, the corruption of one cop - and the madness of an assasin - could blow the whole city sky high...

Top cops: listen to another Badge of Honor title.

Accurate !970s Language and Prejudice

The language in the Assassin is extremely rough, with racial and sexist terms which make me cringe. However, it is a totally accurate portrayal of the thought processes and actions considered acceptable in that era, when grown women were called "girls" and minorities much worse. Despite the language, the characters are varied and unique and the plot is engrossing. Griffin was a brilliant writer, although with very outdated world views.

to me the best

I like the way W E B Griffin writes his story's , growing up in the 70's in Crestview,Fl. watching Dothan channel 4 and all its movie programs Mr. Woods was running at the time on a 13 inch black and white TV allowed me to imagine the colors before colorization by turner which makes it easy for me to follow along listing to the audio books which makes my job easier to bear as a long haul trucker 24 years ago I listen to books on cassette now I have a large collection on CD and now I have 25 books on my trio tablet all WEB Griffin the first one of his books I listen to mention Crestview Fl and area where I grew up and been a big fan ever since waiting for new releases and pass the miles with the old Thank You Mr. Griffin for your story's

Good Listen

The first part is a bit slow but the background information is needed to grasp the ending. Once the main characters are brought into action ... It is hard to stop listening!

Foul Language

How can one admire an author whose mind harbors foul language that destroys Goodness, Truth, and Beauty.
