Story Overview:
Decades after the legend of the original Jackal faded into myth, a new assassin rises — a ghost in the global underworld, unseen and unmatched. Known only by the codename Jackal, he is precision incarnate: no identity, no allegiance, no mistakes.

When a political conspiracy threatens to ignite war across Europe, an elite international task force led by Detective Emilia Rousseau is formed to hunt him down. But the closer they get, the clearer it becomes — this new Jackal isn’t just a killer for hire. He’s rewriting the rules of espionage, manipulating nations, and vanishing into the cracks of digital warfare.

In a world of surveillance, deceit, and shifting loyalties, the ultimate assassin must face his most dangerous enemy yet — the truth about who he really is.
