   I am currently reading Soft Targets by John Gilstrap. It shows to be the 6th books in the Jonathan Grave series, but it seems really out of order. It basically introduces the reader to Irene Rivers, aka Wolverine, who has already appeared in his earlier Johnathan Grave books. Perhaps it was written earlier but published later?
