Off the Grid by PJ Tracy

Off the Grid by P.J. Tracy, 305 pages

Three months after she literally sailed off into the sunset with former FBI agent John Smith, Grace McBride has carved a new kind of life for herself, one that doesn't involve knee high riding boots. Grace's serene new existence shatters when two men board their boat with guns. Grace is forced to flee back to the States, where Monkeewrench and the Minneapolis PD are trying to figure out why terrorists around the world have called a jihad on John Smith. 

Off the Grid is the sixth novel in the Monkeewrench series.  Having read the books (mostly) as they came out, with years in between, rereading the Monkeewrench novels in such close proximity has drawn attention to PJ. Tracy's fascination with the morally gray. The idea of good people doing terrible things for the "right" reasons adds different facets to the story. Unfortunately, despite the interest that fascination brought to the narrative, this is probably the weakest book in the series. It lumbered and labored but never really got anywhere.
