Publisher Description

You’ve lost your job as a department store lingerie buyer, your car’s been repossessed, and most of your furniture and small appliances have been sold off to pay last month’s rent. Now the rent is due again—and you live in New Jersey. What do you do?

If you’re Stephanie Plum, you become a bounty hunter. But not just a nickel-and-dime bounty hunter—you go after the big money. That means a cop gone bad … and not just any cop. She goes after Joe Morelli, a disgraced former vice cop who is also the man who took Stephanie’s virginity at age 16 and then wrote the details on a bathroom wall. With pride and rent money on the line, Plum plunges headlong into her first case, one that pits her against ruthless adversaries—people who’d rather kill than lose.

In Stephanie Plum, Evanovich has created a resourceful and humorous character who stands apart from the pack of gritty female detectives.

    " For my first Evanovich book, it was a pretty easy read and kept my attention. I thought a few of the things were a bit far fetched that happened throughout the book, but I think I will delve into the rest of the Stephanie Plum series sooner than later. Stories are stories for a reason right? "

    " I read this series a few years back but watched the movie with my sister just the other night and made me want to re-read them all. I forgot how much I loved them! Morelli and Ranger are hotties and Stephanie is hilarious. And I heart Grandma Mazur for her peculiarity. Can't wait to read the rest! "

    " Don't read this unless you really like to laugh out loud, prefer non-stereo typical characters, and like a bit of unpredictability. It's a hoot. I love the Stephanie Plum series and so glad there seems to be no end to it. "
