Features: Forsyth really knows how to joke. He tells us a harsh story, the assassination of the jackal and the pursuit by the police force force us to ask the author: Is this fictional? We suspect the authorities are covering up the facts. Oh, God, the jackal is not assassinating General de Gaulle, but rather assassinating the poor readers. The tense atmosphere makes me unable to breathe. Everyone knows that de Gaulle was not killed, although the ending is already known, but the novel always creates a strong suspense. There are indeed many attractive elements. His mission: Assassinate the President of France, Charles de Gaulle. His price: $500,000. His request: Absolute confidentiality, even to his employer. His codename: The Jackal. On an ordinary, cold morning in March 1963, in Austria, a news story triggered the meticulously planned assassination plot against President de Gaulle by the Jackal. Soon after, a secret operation to mobilize the national police, agents, and security personnel to hunt down "The Jackal" was also launched. The work has been adapted into a film with the same name, becoming a classic of Western cinema.
