About ‘The Day of the Jackal’
For years, The Jackal has made a name for himself by being the most effective, and the most expensive assassin in all of Europe. The Jackal is highly adept at carrying out his assignments and disappearing with no trace, and no law enforcement or military agencies have been able to do a thing about his lethal activities.
After his latest job, however, The Jackal has attracted the attention of an intensely tenacious British intelligence officer (Lashana Lynch). She’s not so easily thrown off the trail and is more than willing to chase The Jackal across Europe or wherever else he goes until she brings him to justice. What follows is a taught, deadly game of cat-and-mouse that neither side can predict the end of.
