From Publishers Weekly
When DEA Special Agent Byron J. Timmons is kidnapped in Asunción, Paraguay, at the start of bestseller Griffin's rousing fourth presidential agent novel (after The Hunters), Timmons's grandfather asks his friend, the mayor of Chicago, for help. The mayor passes the request on to the U.S. president, who assigns his personal in-house expert, Lt. Col. C.G. Castillo, to rescue agent Timmons. Castillo is familiar with the territory, having sorted out various terrorist and drug dealer threats in South America in earlier books in the series. Castillo spends a lot of time in meetings and flying around the globe in the course of setting up the big shoot-out. After the brief, long-awaited climax, everyone pats each other on the back and gets ready for the next adventure, which is sure to pick up the loose threads left untied from the just-completed mission. In less accomplished hands, this would be a recipe for boredom, but Griffin pulls it off, leaving satisfied thriller readers hankering for more. (Jan.)

From AudioFile
THE SHOOTERS is the fourth book in Griffin's Presidential Agent series. Delta Force Officer Charley Castillo and his ever-expanding band of clandestine warriors follow a presidential order to find and rescue a DEA agent kidnapped by drug traffickers in Paraguay. Narrator Dick Hill presents a crisp, well-articulated reading of this typical Griffin story, which is packed with exciting characters and situations. Hill's effectiveness as a narrator is apparent, but dealing with the different personalities and accents does present some challenges. Still, THE SHOOTERS is a must for Griffin fans and will also have wide appeal to newcomers to the series. T.J.M. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
