The Burglar and the Blizzard, Classics To Go

A young millionaire named Geoffrey Holland, concerned about a recent string of thefts in the locale, visits his country home in Hillsborough and surprises a burglar, in the form of his old schoolmate, Billy McVay. McVay convinces him to set out, in the midst of a blizzard, to rescue his sister, living nearby in a rundown shack, and wholly ignorant of his (McVay's) career as a thief. Against his better judgement, Holland agrees, and finds himself falling in love at first sight with the beautiful Cecelia McVay. How can Holland discharge his duty to see McVay punished for his crimes, whilst also winning the love of the criminal's sister...? (Goodreads)
