Hawk's Bay, New Zealand

The objective of this opening mission is to look for information on the 'Shadow client', the mysterious figure who orchastrated all of 47's contracts in the previous game.

Alma Reynard is the only target you have to eliminate in Hawk's Bay and you will be presented with a handful of opportunities to get the deed done without anyone noticing. Once you have broken into the house and accessed the computer Alma Reynard, her lover Orson Mills and her security entourage will return to the house. The tricky part of this mission is getting to your boat which the patrolling guards will have found when you make your escape. This will require a diversion which comes in the form of a truck that is parked up nearby that is loaded up with fuel tanks which you can shoot to make a huge explosion. Use the foliage at the beach to provide cover when you slip past the patrolling guards.

Tips on how to Kill Alma Reynard

• Slip chloroform into her tea. Chloroform can be found in the back of the van in the garage.

• Use some fibre wire as a garrote and strangle her while she's brushing her teeth.

• Wait until she is asleep and suffocate her by smothering her with a pillow.

• If she has been escorted to the panic room you will be able to access it by adjusting the painting on the wall in her office or via the roof.
