Very fun addition to the series. Stephanie is accused of murder and spends the entire book searching for clues to clear her name. Plus Morelli and Ranger work together a lot to keep Stephanie safe which is hilarious and you know she has to be in trouble for them to be in communication.

Ridiculous, but a lot of fun.

"Stephanie Plum's ex-husband Dickie Orr has disappeared and Stephanie is the prime suspect in his disappearance. Is Dickie dead? Can he be found? And can Stephanie stay one step ahead in this new, dangerous game? Joe Morelli, the hottest cop in Trenton, New Jersey, is also keeping Stephanie on her toes - and he may know more than he's saying about many things in Stephanie's life. It's a cat-and-mouse game for Stephanie Plum and the ultimate prize might be her life..." (From Amazon)

A fun look at murder and mayhem with a cast of quirky characters and Yummy Joe Morelli. Another great fun read by Evanovich but are starting to all be the same. Same plot and it's getting a bit annoying between Stephanie and Joe.

Can’t stop reading this series! The characters just keep getting better and better!

Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels are definitely a guilty pleasure. But I can really relate to the middle-aged, overeating, dysfunctional Plum. And Lula, her ex-ho sidekick, just rocks. I want Lula to be my ex-ho sidekick.

I'm starting to get a little frustrated with this series. I would like, just once, for Stephanie to not screw up when she's capturing an FTA. Stop with the goofy antics. She's been doing this bounty hunter thing for 13 books now, you'd think she'd know not to let them go out the back door. And just have sex with Ranger for god's sake, you're making me crazy. Throw me a bone here Evanovich!

Dickie Orr, Stephanie's ex-husband, has gone missing and Steph is accused of his murder. It's up to Stephanie to clear her good name with the help of Morelli and Ranger of course! I figured out right away that Dickie was not dead and that he was Joe's protected witness, but that did not stop my enjoyment of the book! As usual, laugh out loud funny and fast to read! The only thing that bothers me is that Stephanie fights Morelli and Ranger's protection. I would LOVE someone to look out for me and make sure that my every move was safe, but for some reason this woman is always bucking the people who want to protect her...infuriating!
