This is the second book in the Timothy Waverly series. "Double Down" picks up right where "Michigan Role" left off. Bennie and Waverly have to pay $550,000 and an additional $250,000 as compensation for all the trouble they caused Dietz. They will be killed if they don't pay up. Bennie and Timothy are lying low in Palm Beach. They scraped together the first $550,000 but the other $250,000 will be impossible. Waverly has plan that involves playing poker with some very wealthy men.

I enjoy the character of Timothy Waverly. Trouble always finds him. The writing of Tom Kakonis is full of action and suspense.. I enjoyed reading Michigan Roll and Double Down. I will definitely read the third book in the Waverly Series. ( )
