Publisher's Synopsis
A young, beautiful eco-terrorist, the American president's wife is determined to stop the over-hunting of whales by the Japanese, the Norwegians, and others, so she embarks on a daring plan to drive a stranded herd of blue whales from the Arctic to the opposite end of the earth -- the Antarctic. Her husband, the President, has promised to let the Japanese take the blue whales in exchange for their support in a looming economic crisis. On board a hijacked whaling factory ship, the First Lady defies her husband and -- with the help of the ship's captain, a recently reformed whaling pirate -- confronts the Japanese fleet and threatens to sink it. This big, bold rescue adventure blends romance with a generous dose of dirty politics.
