New Jersey bounty hunter Stephanie Plum finds herself saddled with the
teenage son of Loretta Rizzi, her latest skip, at the start of the new entry in Evanovich's bestselling series
.
When Mario "Zook" Rizzi and his obsession with the online
role-playing game "Minionfire" become too much for Stephanie to handle,
the pair camp out at Trenton cop Joe Morelli's house. Stephanie also
takes a job with the mysterious Ranger, helping him "babysit" Brenda, a
fading music star in town for a concert.
After Loretta is kidnapped,
Stephanie and Morelli discover that to ensure Loretta's safety, they'll
have to find the $9 million that disappeared after a bank robbery
committed by Loretta's recently paroled brother, Dom. A mild-mannered
stalker and the upcoming nuptials of Stephanie's colleague Lula to
Ranger's right-hand man, Tank, add to the crazy fun.
This Plum adventure won't disappoint those
looking for the perfect summer beach read.
