Explicații Wikipedia: The Jackal, a highly effective assassin, stages a false flag attack to wound Elias Fest, the son of far right German politician Manfred Fest. This draws the senior Fest into a hospital visit where the Jackal assassinates him with a record distance sniper rifle shot. Reviewing the footage of the Jackal leaving the scene, MI6 firearms expert Bianca Pullman realises he used a sniper rifle with a collapsable barrel. She theorises that the weapon was made by Northern Irish gunsmith Norman Stoke. Meanwhile, an anonymous source offers the Jackal $10 million for a job. At an in-person meeting with the contact, Zina Jansone, he learns that the target is billionaire Ulle Dag Charles, who is about to release a disruptive technology known as River. The Jackal demands $100 million to kill such a high-profile and well-protected target. After returning home to his wife Nuria, the person who commissioned the Jackal to assassinate Fest refuses to pay him. Meanwhile, Bianca attempts to force her Belfast contact, Alison, to find Stoke. When she is unsuccessful, Bianca has Alison's activist daughter, Emma, arrested. However, the plan backfires when Emma goes into cardiac arrest in custody.
