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 co-ordinating 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
c?l?bre for political activists. Official Secrets is the
definitive account of a whistleblower case that reads 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?
