The Delicate Storm

Book 2 of the John Cardinal and Lise Delorme Series

by Giles Blunt

A gruesome discovery in the wilderness north of Algonquin Bay leads detectives John Cardinal and Lisa Delorme to a remote cabin that has served as an abattoir for a cold-blooded killer…

But the same woods hide other horrors and soon a second body is discovered, naked and shrouded in ice. When one of the victims is identified as an American, the RCMP is called in, but it's the involvement of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service that arouses Cardinal's true mistrust. Is their interference due to a suspected terrorist link, or is there something even more sinister behind it?
