Ken Follett

Follet, the author of world-famous bestsellers, once again skillfully weaves a ball of conspiracy, betrayal, love and lies; from solving a seemingly innocuous case of stealing a laboratory animal, to consequences beyond our wildest dreams or nightmares.

In the laboratories of the Oxenford Medical company, they are dedicatedly working on a new drug against a deadly virus, under the watchful eye of the owner Stanley Oxenford. But Stanley is not the only one interested in the drug. His philandering son Kit, weighed down by gambling debts, has his eye on potential profits from selling the virus.

After finding a lab technician dead, apparently infected with a virus, head of security Toni Gallo becomes suspicious of the lab's security measures, but has no idea of ​​the true scale of the impending nightmare. Toni will put all her strength into trying to protect the drug, while caring for her mother, who is sinking into the abyss of dementia, with her embittered ex-fiancé as the lead investigator on the case. To make things better, a local television journalist will sniff out the whole story, deciding to present it to the public at all costs - even if he distorts the facts.

In an attempt to pay off his debts by selling the stolen virus to the customer, Kit will team up with violent thieves. But everyone will be a little surprised when they find out what plans the client has in mind with the virus. And then things get really complicated. With the coming storm, the actors of this exciting story will take shelter in a remote family house, and emotional sparks - jealousy, mistrust and sexual attraction - will turn into a real winter fire in which all secrets will be revealed...
