Lou Calabrese is the screenwriter responsible for the CopKiller movies and whose recent Hindenburg movie propelled her long time boyfriend (of 10 years) into stardom, prompting him to elope with the girlfriend of CopKiller star Jack Townsend. Now Lou is in Alaska headed to the site the director for CopKiller IV is threatening to blow up part of Mt McKinley in the name of art, but it's a remote location and she has to share a helicopter with Jack, whom she has never got along with starting when he changed his character's tag line to "I need a bigger gun" from "It's always funny until someone gets hurt" and continuing as he dumped her friend Vicky who is still in love with him but now married to CopKiller IV director Tim Lord (Vicki was also supposed to be on the flight but got a last minute message that her stepson was ill and returned to the hotel).
Anyway on the helcopter ride, the pilot pulls a gun to kill Jack but Jack and Lou use movie ploys to save themselves until the helicopter crashes into a gaggle of geese, plumeting to earth. And then men on snowmobiles appear with guns and start shooting, so our two flee into the wilderness. They must overcome their antagonism to make it out alive... And in the meantime their parents fly to Alaska to worry about them and be near the search; despite their extremely different backgrounds (a retired cop and a society woman) they get together...
I like this book and find it very re-reabable. It suffers a bit from over repetition during the speculation on why Lou and Jack don't like each other and is definitely over the top, but the writing is great and it's a fun time.
