Is it right to kill Satan's hit man? Would it help God's work? This installment in the Left Behind series picks up with Rayford Steele--"believer" and international fugitive--as he struggles with a plan to assassinate Antichrist Nicolae Carpathia. Meanwhile, Carpathia has been busy rebuilding roads, airports, and a cellular/solar satellite phone system--all designed to help him become supreme ruler of the world--and even claim himself to be God. We also find ace reporter Buck Williams anonymously preaching to the masses of believers and converts through his cyberspace magazine The Truth. All the believers in the safe house, including Buck, Doc, Chloe, and Tsion, are suspicious of Hattie--former mistress of Carpathia--who claims to be a believer but may have already compromised their secret location when she tried to buy her way to Europe months before.

Fans of the series won't be disappointed. Jenkins's signature writing is at full force. Readers can count on a suspenseful plot, imaginative futuristic thinking, and familiar characters, all of which appear in the opening pages and are sustained until the last cliffhanger scene when God unleashes another earth-shattering disaster.

From Library Journal
We've all wondered at one time or another what the end of mankind as we know it will be like. Not until you hear the chilling Assassins, narrated by Richard Ferrone in his raspy, matter-of fact voice, will many of those images take form in the souls left behind. Rafert, Buck, Hatti, and the others of the underground Tribunal were too late to come to faith before the Rapture embraced true Christian believers. Now committed to Christ, they find every day a test of survival against the anti-Christ Nicholas Carpathia, the leader of the Global Community, and his soldiers. Biblical prophecies materialize on the earth while fire-breathing horsemen provide protection to believers and destruction to nonbelievers. This is the ultimate game of survival, and winning means coming to Christ before one third of the world's population is annihilated in the Second Coming. Assassins is a race against time and evil along with the power of choice each person has to make about the existence of God. Recommended for Christian and general audiences.

"Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins ... are doing for Christian fiction what John Grisham did for courtroom thrillers."
