The Spy Who Tried to Stop a War by Marcia Mitchell, Thomas Mitchell EPUB

Soon to be a major motion picture starring Keira Knightley, Matt Smith, Ralph Fiennes and Matthew Goode.

Featuring a new introduction from the author.

In January 2003, 28-year-old GCHQ translator Katharine Gun received an email from the US National Security Agency that would turn her world upside down. The message requested Katharine’s assistance in coordinating an illegal US-UK spy operation which would secure UN authorisation for the Iraq invasion. Horrified, she decided to leak the information to the British press.

Katharine’s decision would change her life forever, as she was arrested under the Official Secrets Act whilst becoming a cause célèbre for political activists. The Spy Who Tried To Stop A War is the definitive account of a whistle-blower case that sounds like a thriller and will ask you the same question that was asked of Katharine that cold January day - where do your true loyalties lie?
