**Soon to be a major TV series directed by Brian Kirk** **The 50th
Anniversary Edition with a new introduction by Lee Child** 'As
gripping now as it was 50 years ago' THE TIMES 'Masterful suspense
. . . The Day of the Jackal changed the shape of popular fiction
from the moment it was finished' BEN MACINTYRE ________________ One
of the most celebrated thrillers ever written, The Day of the
Jackal is the exhilarating story of the struggle to catch a killer
before it's too late. 1963. An anonymous Englishman is hired by the
Operations Chief of French terrorist organisation O.A.S. to murder
the French president, General Charles de Gaulle. A failed attempt
in the previous year means the target will be nearly impossible to
reach. Only one man could do the job: an assassin of legendary
talent known only as The Jackal. This remorseless and deadly killer
must be stopped. But he is a man without a name, without an
identity; a lethal spectre. How can you stop an assassin nobody can
identify? The task falls to the best detective in France - and the
price of failure is unthinkable . . . ________________ 'In a class
by itself. Unputdownable' SUNDAY TIMES 'Very clever and immensely
entertaining' DAILY TELEGRAPH 'A perfect example of the adventure
story . . . well written, entirely believable, with this
intriguing, enigmatic character at its centre' ROBERT HARRIS 'A
year-zero, game-changing thriller, one of the most significant of
all time' LEE CHILD 'Wonderful and way ahead of its time' JAMES
PATTERSON 'An extraordinary book' NICK ROBINSON, BBC RADIO 4 TODAY
PROGRAMME 'A masterpiece' MARCUS SCRIVEN, MAIL ON SUNDAY 'I was
spellbound . . . riveted by this chilling story' GUARDIAN
