- Synopsis
- From the back of the book: Death policy Frank and Joe fly to Halifax, Canada, to check out an insurance scam. But as they leave the airport their car is sprayed with bullets. Soon the brother detectives discover they're number one on somebody's hit list. First a friend of their father's is seriously hurt in a bomb blast. Then one of their suspects winds up dead. What started out as a white-collar crime has become an all-out war. And unless the young sleuths track down the stunning secret behind the vicious attacks-they'll be crossing the border in a body bag.... ================ From inside the book: LAST WORDS "Listen . . . important," Dundee said. He glared at Frank, his eyes blazing as he tried to force the words out before his body betrayed him. "Find them . . . Fort. . ." The effort was too much. Gerry Dundee's eyes rolled up, and the tautness went out of his muscles. He sagged into the grass. Frank and Joe stared at each other. He'd left them a world of trouble, a desperate need to get help-and half a clue.

Frank and Joe Hardy are at it once again. This time the brothers travel to Canada for their father. Someone is deeply displeased by the brothers arrival. Almost as soon as they land, Frank and Joe are nearly killed by an assassin. They survive and go on to their hotel. But they are not safe. Someone is really determined to keep the boys from uncovering their secrets. They survive several bombs, a kidnapping, and an explosion. Despite their many attempts to kill the brothers, the assassins are instead captured.
