About The Book:
The Day of the Jackal is a gripping political thriller by Frederick Forsyth, now presented in Marathi by Swati Deshpande. The novel follows a professional assassin who is hired by the OAS (Organisation Armée Secrète), a French paramilitary dissident group, to carry out the assassination of Charles de Gaulle, the then President of France.

Set against a backdrop of intense political unrest in France, the assassin, known only by the codename "The Jackal", embarks on a meticulously planned mission. The story takes readers through the assassin's carefully executed steps, his ability to remain anonymous, and the ever-increasing tension as the French government and intelligence agencies scramble to stop him.

Forsyth weaves a tale of precision and suspense, exploring the intricacies of the plot, the motivations of the characters, and the cat-and-mouse game between the assassin and those determined to prevent the assassination. The novel's fast-paced action, attention to detail, and exploration of political intrigue make it a standout in the thriller genre.

With a plot that keeps readers on the edge of their seats, The Day of the Jackal is an exhilarating and intense story about one of the most daring assassination attempts in modern history.
