Publisher Description

Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum’s life is set to blow sky high when international murder hits dangerously close to home, in this dynamite novel by Janet Evanovich.

 

Before Stephanie can even step foot off Flight 127 Hawaii to Newark, she’s knee deep in trouble. Her dream vacation turned into a nightmare, and she’s flying back to New Jersey solo. Worse still, her seatmate never returned to the plane after the L.A. layover. Now he’s dead—and a ragtag collection of thugs and psychos, not to mention the FBI, are all looking for a photograph he was supposed to be carrying.

 

Only one person has seen the missing photo—Stephanie Plum. Now she’s the target. An FBI sketch artist helps Stephanie re-create the person in the photo, but the first try looks more like Tom Cruise. Until Stephanie can improve her descriptive skills, she’ll need to watch her back.

 

Over at the bail bonds agency things are going from bad to worse. Vinnie’s temporary HQ has gone up in smoke. Stephanie’s wheelman, Lula, falls for their largest skip yet. Lifetime arch nemesis Joyce Barnhardt moves into Stephanie’s apartment. And everyone wants to know what happened in Hawaii?

 

Morelli, Trenton’s hottest cop, isn’t talking about Hawaii. Ranger, the man of mystery, isn’t talking about Hawaii. And all Stephanie is willing to say about her Hawaiian vacation is . . . It’s complicated.

"Reading all of the Stephanie Plum books has been so very entertaining. How could you not love these books? You have the ever so quirky and disaster magnet Stephanie and her sidekick, former 'ho, Lula, along with a cast of characters that she either works with or is related to. Then you have Stephanie's love interests, Ranger and Morelli. Who could blame her for not being able to make up her mind? LOL"

    " Just finished this book last night. What can I say just like the others a good read. Stephanie plum is so funny n her side kick Lula. As I read I catch myself seeing this series on a T.V. Show. I can see myself just laughing so hard if this was show. There is 19 books in this series so far so that is a good hand full of seasons there. Hoping the author keeps the series going. Already started the last book in the series. "
