This review is from: BLIND TRUST (Hardcover)

Catherine Saylor is a San Francisco detective with twelve years experience as a private investigator and ten years experience practicing Aikido. She is contacted by bank executive Daniel Martin who fears his bank's vulnerable computer system may be ripe for a $5,000,000 theft by missing key employee James Mendoza.

Catherine thinks the key to the mystery has its origin somewhere in the army experiences of Mendoza and his buddies in Vietnam. While tracking Mendoza to his hiding place in Colorado, she uncovers an elaborate plot of deception and the identity of the real villain.
