The Whistle Blower

THE WHISTLE BLOWER is a timely story about the British Government's listening center at GCHQ, Cheltenham.

Frank Jones (Michael Caine) is an ordinary, law-abiding businessman. He served his country well during the war. And he's justly proud of his son Bob (Nigel Havers), a Russian linguist and translator.

Frank's world is shattered by the arrival of the police to tell him his son is dead.

Accidental Death' is the verdict at the inquest. And so the plot thickens.

The father embarks on his own investigation into his son's death and discovers that there are no limits to what a government will do to protect its secret activities.

Frank finds his own way of dealing with the situation. When he finally unravels the truth, he takes matters into his own hands in a sensational climax to the film!

May 6, 2008 WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Federal agents on Tuesday raided the office of a federal whistle-blower protection agency and subpoenaed all 17 staffers, the FBI said.

The FBI seized computers belonging to agency chief Scott Bloch, sources say.

Law enforcement sources said agents seized computers belonging to Scott Bloch, the head of the Office of Special Counsel, an agency established in the 1970s to protect whistle-blowers and shield federal employees against improper management.
