The unputdownable novel from the master storyteller Frederick Forsyth, the bestselling author of The Day of the Jackal, now a hit TV series.
One bullet will put the Nazis into power...
The stranger stands in the rafters of New York’s Grand Central Station, his rifle ahead of him. The President’s security team are compromised, rendering the President vulnerable just as he is due to deliver a very public criticism of Israel.
If his bullet meets its target, Odessa - a menacing and powerful Nazi group - will take control of the White House. If he fails, everything he's worked for will be lost.
A team of specialist operatives race to stop the attack, and the nation inches closer to catastrophe. As the assassin pulls the trigger, something inexplicable happens. Something that turns this deadly game of cat and mouse on its head...
