It begins on a luxury island resort, it ends on the Siberian tundra in one of the ten most-polluted places on the planet: Norilsk. Ivory-smuggling, arms-trafficking and massive state corruption make daily headlines; WHITE GOLD gives them a terrifying human face. Carter French, a young Scotsman with a checkered past and an uncertain future, finds himself swept up in a relentless hunt that snatches him from the familiar comfort of a world he knows and plunges him headlong into a dance of death. His perilous journey leads him from the golden sands of Massachusetts, to the streets of New York's Chinatown and then to the surreal landscape of the Baltic island of Faro where he comes face-to-face with his past. Now he must choose. Turn back and save his skin or risk everything in an impossible quest for the most elusive and dangerous prey of all - true love."
