Publisher's Summary
A family Christmas, a blizzard, and a deadly virus let loose. Filled with startling twists, Whiteout is the ultimate knife-edge drama from bestselling author Ken Follett.
A Family Reunited
As a blizzard descends from the north on Christmas Eve, several people converge on a remote family estate in Scotland. Stanley Oxenford, director of a pharmaceutical research company, has everything riding on a drug he is developing to fight a lethal virus.
A Brewing Storm
Several others are interested in his success too: his children, at home for Christmas with their offspring, have their eyes on the money he will make; Toni Gallo, forced to resign from the police department in disgrace, is betting her career on keeping the drug safe; and a local television reporter, determined to move up, has sniffed the story, even if he has to bend the facts to tell it.
A House Under Siege
A sinister gang spots an opportunity to use one of Stanley’s children against him and steal the virus. As everyone takes shelter, it becomes apparent that being inside the house may be more dangerous than the storm outside, especially when a lethal virus might be on the loose...
Critic Reviews
"Human betrayal, medical terror and a race against time...this is gasp a minute stuff by a vintage practitioner." (Daily Mail)

You need to ask ?
It’s written by one of the Masters of spinning a yarn.
I remember not being able to purchase the Hard Cover of The Pillars Of The Earth, by Mr Ken Follett so I bought it as soon as it came out in Paperback. I still have it with the Original Cover.
Since then, I devour Ken Follett’s Books.
Thank you to the Narrator, great job and a Massive Hug to Mr Follett for your plethora of wonderful Books ♥️

Versatile Follett proves his true writing ability
Story revolves around a deadly virus which is monitored in a highly secured Laboratory. Follett somehow immerses us into a bit of a family saga and a crime/thriller. Such a talented Author is this bloke - nothing like his Trilogies - in fact if you didn't know it was Mr. Follett you would be wondering who the author was - such a versatile writer indeed. Worth a place in your Ken Follett Library.

Interesting story.
Sally Armstrong was an amazing narrator. Love her work. The story was interesting. I was a little frustrated with the characters at times, but all in all I thoroughly enjoyed the book.
