W idowed college professor Jim McAllister is involved in an
accident one snowy night in Vermont. When he rescues Alex Scorsese,
a U.S. State Department courier, he never expects to fall in love.
But that's exactly what happens.
While the couple honeymoon in Paris, Alex picks up a diplomatic
pouch that leads them into a harrowing dash across Europe. They
evade terrorists, escape a plane crash, and narrowly avoid an
embassy assassination attempt only to find themselves shot down
over the icy Atlantic. After a cruise ship rescues them, the
unthinkable happens: Alex dies.
Finding the strength to keep living after losing his second wife
proves an incredible challenge for Jim, and he finds support from
an unlikely place: Leigh Scorsese, Alex's twenty-one-year-old
daughter. But Jim is still in jeopardy because of the information
he now carries in his memory. When Leigh is kidnapped and held
hostage, Jim has a tough choice to make: either lose Leigh or give
up the information the whole world wants-the coordinates to bin
Laden's hiding place.
Combining a tender love story with a violent escape chase
across Europe, "Winter White" is a heart-stopping, first-rate
thriller.
