Plot Synopsis

Antarctica. At 120 degrees below zero, this is the most isolated place on earth. Home to one of the deadliest forces in the world the whiteout. The ice has provided U.S. Marshal Carrie Stetko (Beckinsale) with a perfect place to forget her troubled past and feel at peace, but in just three days she will be getting out. Each winter the station powers-down and the sun sets for several months. Soon nothing will be visible or traceable so when there is a sudden murder in her jurisdiction - the first homicide in Antartica - Stetko is quickly plunged into a shocking mystery. When U.N. Special Agent Robert Pryce (Macht), is sent to monitor her investigation, the case takes a deadly twist and a 60-year-old secret is unearthed. As Stetko herself becomes a target, Pryce could prove to be a powerful ally but only if solving the murder is what he’s really after. With only days before the last plane out, Stetko must race to unravel the mystery or risk being stranded on the ice as darkness and the killer closes in.
