Ilustration Supposing Books Avenger
Attorney Calvin Dexter hangs his shingle in a quiet New Jersey town, has a reasonably successful practice, and takes the hills strong while triathalon training. But Dexter is no ordinary man.The summer before he goes to college, Ricky Colenso travels to Bosnia to volunteer as an aid worker. A few weeks later, he disappears and is never heard from again. A family grieves and is offered little hope--in the fog of that horrible time and place, the killer, too, has vanished.
Or so it would seem. For in a world that has forgotten right and wrong, there are few like Cal Dexter who can settle the score. And so, years later, a worldwide chase is on and Dexter begins to draw a net around the killer. But this time CIA agent Paul Devereux must find a way to stop Dexter before his quest for vengeance throws the world into chaos.
A heart-stopping novel of murder and mystery, double-cross and triple-cross, old loyalties and new hatreds, Avenger has all of Frederick Forsyth's page-turning trademarks.

well....ididnt really finished the book. i gone through half of it get frustrated. my friend recommended me this book so i started reading it. the auther created a good story and characters. but the way he told it really makes you feel not to read more. i believe he wanted to make the story a bit complicated so it gets all laggy . well simple it is not that musch of good book by fredrick.I hate to say anything bad about the book because it was excellent. I was not interested in reading everything other than the Avengers destruction of this Monster and his thugs. learned a lot about other things though.
Frederick Forsyth is one of the best (if not the best) thriller writers today and Avenger proves it again. Avenger is the story of vigilante Cal Dexter's pursuit of a Serbian warlord into the jungles of the fictional Republic of San Martin. Dexter, a former Vietnam war veteran, now small-town attorney and secret mercenary. Dexter is after Zoran Zilic, a gangster who has escaped Serbia with a fortune after killing an American aid worker. There is also an FBI angle to the entire story and the
Occasionally I read Forsyth ... Avenger is a real page-turner, and I don't think many readers doubt if revenge can be justified ... anyway, FF at his best!

Secondly, the story was detailed, complex and with plot twists and turns in all the right places. The ending was also just. Forsyth had guided you neatly through the story building you up to detest the villian, and when the final
Very cleverly written.Throughout the book, it can be easily mistaken to be a collection of short stories but which Forsyth has very cleverly combined together to create a story which can be easily comparable to The Day of the Jackal. However, the mystery that surrounded the Jackal with regard to his identity is never seen here in The Avenger, Cal Dexter.One of the main plus points of this book is that it's short and sweet with a no nonsense approach, whether it be the Avenger's past or the inner
