Storyline for the The Day of the Jackal

In Munich a mysterious Englishman assassinates a German political figure with a seemingly-impossible piece of marksmanship.

At MI6 headquarters in London, an analyst, Bianca Pullman, takes notice and thinks she might know a way to identify the killer.

An elite sniper, a master of disguise and a highly trained killer, the Jackal is an assassin, coldly carrying out hits for a fee.

Following an attack on a high-profile and notorious politician, he’s offered his riskiest job yet, one that could pay him enough to leave this life for good.

But his work has attracted the attention of Bianca, a tenacious British intelligence officer, whose world-class expertise in firearms makes her the ideal candidate to hunt him down.

What follows is a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe, as the Jackal works to carry out his new mission, while being pursued by Bianca.

However, as the hunt continues and more casualties are caught in their crossfire, it becomes clear that there may be other forces pulling the strings.

As both Bianca and the Jackal’s personal lives clash with their work, they risk everything, pushing themselves to their limits with disastrous consequences.
