The Odessa File is a historical thriller centered on a journalist uncovering a secret Nazi organization, ODESSA, that aids former SS officers in escaping justice. The novel blends fiction with real historical events, reflecting Forsythâs investigative approach. A movie adaptation of the same name was released in 1974 starring Jon Voight and directed by Ronald Neame with a score by Andrew Lloyd Webber. The Biafra Story, on the other hand, is a nonfiction account of the Nigerian Civil War (1967â"1970), based on Forsythâs firsthand experiences as a war correspondent. The book exposed atrocities committed against the secessionist Biafran state, challenging official narratives and demonstrating Forsythâs commitment to political and historical truth. Both works illustrate his ability to merge journalism with storytelling, creating compelling narratives grounded in reality.
