** NOW A MAJOR TV SERIES STARRING EDDIE REDMAYNE ** 'As gripping now as it was 50 years ago' THE TIMES

'In a class by itself. Unputdownable' SUNDAY TIMES
________________ 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 . . .
________________ Readers can't stop reading The Day of the Jackal . . . ***** 'I loved, loved, loved this book which is in a category that I don't usually read.'
***** 'A very remarkable and memorable thriller - while the other novels of this sort are usually forgotten too soon this book has stuck in my head for good.'
***** 'Still Amazing the Second Time Around - 5 Stars!'
***** 'This book is one of the best books in its genre. Haven't found a book which can be at par with The Day of the Jackal.'
***** 'This is, without question, the best thriller I have ever read.'
