Dandy Frost - Ninja Assassin Books in Order

The Dandy Frost - Ninja Assassin books take a very different path from Linsey Lanier's crime thrillers. They are futuristic New Adult romantic fantasy spy stories about Dandy Frost, a factory worker who would much rather become a fashion designer than fight a dangerous international spy organization.

Dandy begins as someone without much power over her own life. That changes when her boss sends her halfway around the world on a secret assignment. The mission is not optional, the organization is not ordinary, and the work quickly asks more of her than she expected.

The first book, You Want Me to Kill Who?, establishes the premise with a mix of reluctant-hero adventure and humor. Dandy is pulled from factory life into a world of espionage and danger, even though her own ambitions are creative and personal. That gap between what she wants and what she is forced to do gives the story its voice.

In You Want Me to Go Where?, Dandy faces another assignment after her first experience with JB and the secret organization. She knows that a visit to her boss's office can mean trouble, and she has good reason to wonder whether the next order will send her into an even more impossible situation.

The series does not treat Dandy as a standard trained operative from page one. She is pushed into the action, has to adapt quickly, and brings her own perspective to a world built around secrets, threats, and high-risk missions. The title's ninja-assassin element signals action, but the books also make room for romantic tension and a sense of fun.

Dandy would still prefer the fashion career.

These are compact stories with a faster, more offbeat feel than Lanier's longer detective series. Readers can expect a futuristic setting, spy missions, a heroine in over her head, and a premise that enjoys the absurdity of asking an unwilling factory worker to take on extraordinary danger.

Start with You Want Me to Kill Who? and continue to You Want Me to Go Where?. Reading in order is the best way to see Dandy's first encounter with the organization and the escalating challenges that follow.
