De wraak van Odessa
Het is de zomer van 2025. Een Amerikaanse senator wordt levend verbrand aangetroffen in zijn woning in Washington DC. Gemaskerde schutters richten een bloedbad aan onder supporters tijdens een voetbalwedstrijd in Berlijn. En een oude man wordt vermoord in een Duits ziekenhuis.
Wanneer journalist en podcastmaker Georg Miller verbanden begint te leggen tussen de gebeurtenissen, wordt hij zelf het doelwit van huurmoordenaars. Zijn onderzoek onthult dat zijn belagers afkomstig zijn van een organisatie die bekendstaat als Odessa, een nazigroepering die vastbesloten is de macht te heroveren. Nu hun campagne om het westerse politieke systeem te ontwrichten in een stroomversnelling komt, moet Georg de volgende aanslag zien te voorkomen, voordat die de loop van de geschiedenis voorgoed verandert…

The son of a furrier, he was born in Ashford, Kent, educated at Tonbridge School and later attended the University of Granada. He became one of the youngest pilots in the Royal Air Force at 19, where he served on National Service from 1956 to 1958. Becoming a journalist, he joined Reuters in 1961 and later the BBC in 1965, where he served as an assistant diplomatic correspondent. From July to September 1967, he served as a correspondent covering the Nigerian Civil War between the region of Biafra and Nigeria.

Returning to Biafra as a freelance reporter, Forsyth wrote his first book, The Biafra Story in 1969.
Forsyth decided to write a novel using similar research techniques to those used in journalism. His first full length novel, The Day of the Jackal, was published in 1971 and became an international bestseller and gained its author the Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Novel. It was later made into a film of the same name.
