The Day of the Jackal, The Odessa File - Frederick Forsyth torrent

The Day of the Jackal:

The Day of the Jackal is the story of an anonymous Englishman who, in the spring of 1963, was hired to assassinate General Charles de Gaulle.

France was infuriated by Charles de Gaulle’s withdrawal from Algeria, and there were six known attempts to assassinate the general that failed. This novel dramatizes the seventh, mostly deadly attempt, involving a professional killer for hire who would be unknown to the French Police.

His code name was Jackal, his price half a million dollars, and his demand total secrecy, even from his employers.

Step by painstaking step, we follow the Jackal in his meticulous planning, from the fashioning of a specially made rifle to the devising of his approach to the time and the place where the general is to meet the Jackal’s bullet.

The only obstacle in his path is a small, diffident, rumpled policeman, who happens to be considered by his boss the best detective in France: Deputy Commissaire Claude Lebel.

The Osessa File:

The suicide of an elderly German Jew explodes into revelation after revelation: a Mafia like organization called Odessa, a real life fugitive known at the “Butcher of Riga”, a young German journalist turned obsessed avenger...

And ultimately, of a brilliant, ruthless plot to reestablish the worldwide power of SS mass murders and to carry out Hitler’s chilling “Final Solution.”
