Call it stranger than fiction.”—\u003ci\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the grand master of international suspense comes his most intriguing story ever—his own.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor more than forty years, Frederick Forsyth has been writing extraordinary real-world novels of intrigue, from \u003ci\u003eThe Day of the Jackal\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eThe Odessa File\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Fox\u003c\/i\u003e. Whether writing about the murky world of arms dealers or the intricacies of worldwide drug cartels, every plot has been chillingly plausible because every detail has been minutely researched. But what most people don’t know is that some of his greatest stories of intrigue have been from his own life. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe was the RAF’s youngest pilot at the age of nineteen, barely escaped the wrath of an arms dealer in Hamburg, got strafed by a MiG during the Nigerian Civil War, landed during a bloody coup in Guinea-Bissau (and has himself been accused of helping fund a 1973 coup in Equatorial Guinea). The Stasi arrested him, the Israelis feted him, the IRA threatened him, and a certain attractive Czech secret police agent, well, her actions were a bit more . . . intimate. And that’s just for starters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNominated for the Edgar Award for best critical\/biographical work of 2015.\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51167622267168,"sku":"9781101981856","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9781101981856.jpg?v=1769737363","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/es\/products\/the-outsider-1","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
