Inhalt: |
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. |
