ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In "The Day of the Jackal" by Frederick Forsyth, a professional assassin, known only as the Jackal, is hired to kill the President of France. The story follows the meticulous preparations of the Jackal, as he creates false identities, acquires a specialized weapon, and plans his attack. Simultaneously, French authorities, led by Commissaire Lebel, race against time to uncover the assassin’s identity and prevent the assassination. The book is a high-stakes thriller, exploring themes of political intrigue, the hunt for a killer, and the limitations of law enforcement against a determined adversary. The narrative delves into the detailed methods of both the assassin and the investigators, highlighting the constant tension between the two. The book explores how one man's planning and preparation is enough to challenge the most powerful security agencies.
