The Imperial Connection, by Edward Charles

This was an "enjoyable enough but it isn't literature" suspense novel.  The hero, Mike, travels to find an injured former military teammate who is homeless.  He happens upon Andy and of course they instantly fall in love.  She has extraordinary skills that complement Mike's.

In Mr. Charles' world, FBI agents are helpful to the point of repairing broken doors for their victims. The military is helpful to the point of retargeting drones and firing missiles on random property inside the USA.  The intelligence agencies are helpful... oh, heck, let's just say that I'm skeptical.
