Title: Follett keeps you turning the pages
Review: With White Out, Follett pulls together the ingredients for a great story. Set in the present day, Follett spins a tale focused on a multi-generational, dysfunctional family together in a remote Scottish estate for the Christmas holiday. The patriarch of the family is a brilliant scientist who created and runs a nearby medical research laboratory. As the story unfolds, the reader is introduced to a group of nefarious individuals intent on launching a biological terrorist attack in London. Character development is strong. Human frailties are exposed. A series of sub-plots run throughout, adding depth to the main storyline. Although the story starts a little bit slow, White Out becomes an impressive, fast-paced tale, full of intrigue, twists, and turns that are classic Follett. Once you start reading, it will be difficult to stop.
