“Capitalism is melting as well as the ice, and both get more dangerous as they die.”
Mat Coward, The Morning Star
"A gripping, page-turning eco-thriller with not an ounce of seal blubber upon it, the novel is part oil rig drama and part survival story."
Kevan Manwaring author/editor of Writing Eco-Fiction and Heavy Weather
"This is a novel that entertains while it unsettles."
Dr. Paul Taylor-McCartney, commissioning editor and author of Sisters of the Pentacle
Only one knows the truth. Only one can reveal it. Only one can save them all.
Carrie, a Scottish rescue swimmer out of her depth in the High Arctic. Ross, the owner of an oil rig with a guilty conscience. Amaruq, an Inuvialuit oil-rig worker caught between two worlds.
Stranded on the Arctic ice with a starving polar bear and a half-dead stranger, Carrie’s left with nothing but deadly choices. Ross and Amaruq face their own crossroads. Lives hang on their decisions.
From the cruel Arctic to the corporate backrooms of shady Big Oil, White Road is an authentic and gripping eco-thriller of survival, battled out at the edge of everything.
