Off Guard — Darrell A. Lane

Police Cadet Amanda Katt was running from a failed marriage. She packed her bags, grabbed her dog, and left Chicago forever. Terrace Heights promised a new start at Phoenix Security Alliance. Things were looking up. Following a terrorist attack she was assigned to Lucas Fabrications Plant 6, but soon discovered that the guards were disappearing, one by one, and the security supervisor was the prime suspect. And now, as al Qaeda plots another attack, Amanda's unofficial investigation exposes her to a malicious murderer. But she refuses to believe that her new lover, Lieutenant Chase Doyle, is the legendary Blue-eyed Ninja.
