I want to nominate The Day Of The Jackal by by Frederick Forsyth. I have not read this book and has been in my tbr for a long time and have heard nice things about it.
Quote:
It is 1963 and an anonymous Englishman has been hired by the Operations Chief of the O.A.S. to murder General de Galle. A failed attempt in the previous year means the target will be nearly impossible to get to. But this latest plot involves a lethal weapon: an assassin of legendary talent.
Known only as The Jackal this remorseless and deadly killer must be stopped, but how do you track a man who exists in name alone?
