Publisher's Synopsis
Graham Carde offers to help a diver he comes across in Georgian Bay, a huge bay in the Great Lakes system. In return, the diver pulls a shotgun and takes a shot at Carde's boat. This is only the first in a series of attacks on Carde, his friends and a local landmark hotel. A slice of Canada's peaceful Cottage Country has suddenly become a battleground attracting foreign agents, thugs and killers from a Mexican cartel. What the hell? Doubled Down Deadly picks up where The Russian Crisis and Crisis in the Cold left off. Graham Carde is the occasional cook, housekeeper and friend of Jackson Phillips, the rich founder of a military technology company based in Toronto. Carde tends Phillips luxurious cottage on a private island in Georgian Bay. But Carde is also a former special forces soldier, helicopter pilot and all 'round tough guy who can do a lot more than cook up a storm. Not only does he fight back against the homicidal diver, he takes action when the nearby Beausoleil Hotel is attacked just as Prince Harry and Meghan are visiting the resort for a relaxing weekend. Why did the diver try to kill Carde just for offering help? Why would local thugs want to shoot up and bomb the Beausoleil? Why would cartel creeps want to take over the hotel land? Doubled Down Deadly is the third novel in the Crisis series. It lives up to its name by doubling down on the action of the first two books. Graham Carde is a hard-edged hero dealing with a complex set of problems. Cottage Country was never this dangerous!
