The History Book Summary

The History Book by Humphrey Hawksley

Kat Polinski - burglar, hacker, undercover agent - returns home from a deadly mission at the Kazakh Embassy in Washington to find a cryptic message from her sister. Soon after she learns that her sister, Suzy, has been murdered - shot with a high-powered rifle in a desolate spot 30 miles from London. Why was Suzy there? Was it anything to do with the controversial 'Project Peace'?

An international security agreement, this project allows constant surveillence and loss of individual freedom in return for stability and order. Kat must use every weapon at her disposal from Martial Arts to computer hacking to bring her sister's killer to justice. But in her search for answers she discovers an increasingly plausible threat that could destroy the world as we know it.....
