About this product
Product Information
The Programsafeguards the truth, but whenThe Programhas a hidden agenda, the protected become the hunted With his nuanced psychological insight, inscrutable plotting, and a captivating lead character that parallels Jonathan Kellerman's Alex Delaware, Stephen White's Alan Gregory novels have become perennial national bestsellers. But, withThe Program, White has challenged himself and honed his craft with remarkable assurance to create a rare breed of thriller. A dazzling mix of first-person and omniscient voices rewards readers with an irresistible narrative momentum. But the heart and soul of the novel is an indomitable woman reevaluating the seemingly innocuous choices she's made in the past while confronting the horrifying circumstances that threaten her family's future survival. "Every precious thing I lose, you will lose two."The Programbegins with a condemned man's last words to New Orleans District Attorney Kirsten Lord. After her husband is gunned down in front of her, Lord has no choice but to flee the wrath of the murderer's vengeance. Lord pulls up stakes, changes her name, and accepts the Witness Protection Program's offer to hide her and her young daughter in Boulder, Colorado. Soon thereafter, they are befriended by Program veteran Carl Luppo, a solitary mob assassin tormented by his former life who has nothing but time for regret. Sensing that someone inside the program has compromised Lord and her daughter's safety, Luppo takes on the role of sentinel, fully realizing that this may be his last shot at redemption. Even though Lord suspects that Luppo's warnings about the Program's dark side are justified and that she should believe the former hit man's instincts, the only people she can really trust are her nine-year-old daughter and perhaps her Program-appointed psychologist Alan Gregory. Fans of White's previous work will applaud the brilliant use of series favorite Alan Gregory in a seemingly secondary role in the novel, and new readers will find themselves compelled to find out what Gregory has encountered before. But all readers will agree thatThe Programis a superior thriller; a novel firmly grounded in the realities of three-dimensional characters in crisis and driven with the narrative pace of a guilty pleasure.

Reviews
Advance Praise forThe Program: "The Programshould come with a one-sitting warning label and a couple of Valium. A dynamic woman in jeopardy is forced to team up with the most appealing, self-conflicted mobster since Tony Soprano to try to outwit and survive an insidious, secretive organization. Stephen White's latest puts him alongside Jonathan Kellerman as a master of the psychological thriller. Proceed at your own risk. You'll be thinking about this one for a long time." -Stanley Pottinger, bestselling author ofThe Fourth ProcedureandA Slow Burning "A page-turner and a sharp, compelling portrait of a woman and daughter in crisis." -Iris Johansen, bestselling author ofThe Search,The Killing Game, and And Then You Die "The Programis a prime-time thriller, packed thick with sharp psychological twists and sinister plot turns. White's previous novels have always delivered precision pacing and colorful settings, but he has turned it up several notches with this one, clicking the writing gears into overdrive and delving into areas that are at once gut-check fascinating and keep-the-lights-on frightening. His characters are multi-dimensional and flow off the pages as real as a death threat and as human as a kind neighb∨ his dialogue is insightful and Gillette-sharp; and the story he has chosen to tell is a daily-double combo of hard-to-put-down and even harder to forget." -Lorenzo Carcaterra, bestselling author ofGangster,Apaches, andSleepers "Stephen White has a nice touch-he can make spelling bees scary and turn elementary school teachers into believable hit-women. The Program is an exciting ride through a dark region of law enforcement, and there are big surprises at the end." -Peter Abrahams, Edgar-nominated author ofCrying WolfandA Perfect Crime "All of the Alan Gregory novels have been spellbinding, but withThe Program, Stephen White rises to the top ranks of modern crime fiction. Breakneck plotting combined with penetrating psychological insight make this book an unforgettable experience. This is one of the best thrillers you will ever read." -William Bernhardt, bestselling author ofSilent Justiceand the forthcomingMurder One Praise for the Alan Gregory novels: "White constructs his labyrinthine plot with the dexterity of a surgeon and the sensitivity of a psychologist." -Jonathan Kellerman, bestselling author ofDr. DeathandMonster "Stephen White writes thrillers of the first order." -Nelson DeMille, bestselling author ofThe Lion's GameandThe General's Daughter
