While I enjoyed both movies (I agree that the 1st was better than the second) and the 1st still comes on TCM from time to time. The book was FANTASTIC !! From the first page to the last the reader felt that he was a 'silent witness' standing beside the jackal. I didn't know if they still held passports overseas OR if it was a 'European' thingee at that time and slowly disappeared.

The book is terrific!  Been many years.  I think it time to read it again and watch TCM for the movie.

Yes he did - and the flics were catching up with him because they had his then-current name.  If you recall, they descended on the place shortly after he checked out — which is why that was the last hotel he checked in at.  His next stop was at her house, and then the apartment of the man he picked up at the Turkish bath in Paris.

 

Oh man, I had forgotten he went to her house.  It has been a few years!  haha.   The remake was called The Jackal w/ Bruce Willis, Richard Gere, and Sydney Poitier.   It was actually a different target and updated to then current times.
