When the NATO commanding general’s wife is kidnapped, he calls on an old friend, Ethan Fitzgerald, an agent of the U.S. government’s most secretive intelligence agency, to rescue her. Fitz finds himself fighting against time, and a cabal of demented terrorists who have conceived a plot that would upset the balance of power in the world, and bring about a new order that would destroy Western civilization. The action moves across Europe as Fitz races the clock, and tries desperately to put the pieces of the puzzle together.

About the Author

I grew up in Waycross, Georgia and Sanford, Florida, and enlisted in the U.S. Army when I was seventeen years old. After three years of active duty, most of it in Europe, I began my studies at Mercer University in Macon, Georgia, and received degrees in history and law. I became a board certified trial lawyer and practiced law in Orlando, Florida for thirty-eight years. I wrote my first book, Longboat Blues,the first of the Matt Royal series, in 2005. Since then, seven more books in the series have been published. My ninth book, The Assassin's Game,is not part of the Matt Royal series, but introduces another protagonist named Ethan Fitzgerald. I'm married to the former Jean Higgins of Macon, Georgia, and we have three sons and two grandchildren. We live in Maitland, a suburb of Orlando, and Longboat Key, Florida, where the Matt Royal series takes place.

Loved it. I have been a fan of the Matt Royal series, being an Orlando resident for 30 years and now a resident of Siesta Key ( neighboring key to longboat) I`ve enjoyed the Longboat series and was skeptical of a new direction for H. T. Griffin.. It was fantastic. Ethan Fitzgerald was a commanding character and the book flowed effortlessly to the exciting conclusion. Looking forward to more Ethan Fitzgerald offerings.

I have read all the Matt Royal books and liked them, so I was very excited to see this new book and curious if I would like another leading character. The characters are well formed and the plot keeps you turning pages. Fitz (Ethan Fitzgerald) is very likeable as well as talented. I look forward to seeing more of him. If you like Vince Flynn/Mitch Rapp you will probably enjoy this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review of The Assassins Game
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2021

The author is a very good storyteller, this character ( American version of James Bond) is a very complex man. E. Fitzgerald ( born and raised in America) with deep family ties from the Middle East became American Assassin because of the Middle Eastern Version of the " Hatfield/ McCoys, his beloved Grandmother was brutally murdered and Fits tracked down the Killer and the man who ordered the hit. The Agency had the killers under surveillance and convinced Fitzs to join them. In this story what starts out as a simple kidnapping evolved into a very interesting and complex plot.

I have read most of his Matt Royal books and have enjoyed them. This was the first time I've read something by him with other characters. It was a good story line with plenty of twists and turns. Great read!

The story was like a mild form of Jason Bourne - easier to follow, but still exciting. I am looking forward to more development of Fitz, the main character. I want to know more about his personality... you know, like James Bond... what's his favorite drink, what kind of women does he prefer... I want to know more about his personal thoughts...please go on with Fitz and have him be involved with North Korea, secret arms dealers... take us to countries that are exotic... take us inside political families in eastern countries... take us to the moon, the deep sea... to obscure cities, towns...Terrell Griffin can do this!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good read. Not at all what I expected though.

I expected an action thriller. It's not that. It's some political intrigue, a lot of searching for leads and following clues. If you like typical mystery/detective stories that slowly put the pieces of the puzzle together, you'll love this. If you like intense breath-taking action, you will be sorely disappointed. It's a decent story line and worth the read as long as the title doesn't mislead you and leave you disappointed and feeling short-changed.

Very good reading. Not too heavy as some spy novels can be. The plot is well developed and easy to follow. Writing is outstanding. I read it in a couple of days as it was hard to put down. Keeps the reader interested throughout the book.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's OK
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2013

I like Griffin and have read (I think) all his books.

The Asassin's Game is a new character in a new twist that really isn't that new for him.

He has basically moved the main character from Matt Royal to his Black opps buddy and given him a new name. Then you get to see what he does when he is away from Florida. Then he replaces the female police detective with a female agent that could be her sister.

The book moves fast in true Giffin tradition and the story line is OK with a predictable outcome.

If Griffin's objective is to creaste a new series with Fritz, he needs to start thinking more outside his Matt Royal box. I was hoping for more than I got. Sorry Terry.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good but not great
Reviewed in Canada on May 2, 2014

I suppose assassins lead a very unidimensional existence and, therefore, there is not much else to write about than them taking out the bad guys. I personally found the characters to be a bit shallow and uninteresting because the reader is not privy to much about their background and life outside of being an assassin. The plan of the bad guys was a little hard to believe but the action was good. I much preferred the author's previous books but I can see the potential of these new characters and hope. that more stories involving them are forthcoming.
There were numerous grammatical errors throughout the text which I found off-putting. It was good but not great.

5.0 out of 5 stars A cracking read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 29, 2013

I purchased this on a whim, never having read the author previously. I enjoyed the book immensely, an amazing 'page turner' that held me from start to finish. The plot features a race against time to foil a terrorist plot, save the lives of several kidnap victims and unravel those responsible and deal with them. The main character, Ethan Fitzgerald, is a government operative working within a shadowy black ops department that does not officially exist. The numerous twists and turns added to the well written (and edited) prose, makes it a highly recommended read.
