Description

In Double Cross, Jack Daniels delivers a knockout punch in his first funny novel about the underside of the boxing world. When middleweight fighter Tony "Chips" Lombardo is ordered to take a dive in his next fight, something goes terribly wrong. The mob goes looking for him, and then the cops want to question him about the murder of his brother Rocco. Chips escapes into the mountains with Rocco's girlfriend, triggering a comedy of errors that could have been ripped from the pages of Get Shorty and The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight. Who will get to him first, the mobsters or the forces of the law? Is Chips down for the count or can he find some way to get back in the fight and turn the odds back in his favor? Jack Daniel's short novel Double Cross winds its way through a series of adventures and misadventures that will put readers on the edge of their seats, howling with laughter even as they are riveted by suspense. The author's style is a blend of Elmore Leonard, Carl Hiaasen, Lee Childs, and James Patterson. Readers will be intrigued all the way through to the final pages of Double Cross and unable to predict the surprise ending.
