Twelve Sharp: Janet Evanovich

June 29, 2006 By: Leslie Category: Books Comments Off

Keeping the fast paced, rollicking fun going in the most recent addition to the Stephanie Plum series, Evanovich delivers another fantastic summer read. In the wake of several disappointing books from favorite authors, such as Faye Kellerman’s “Straight Into Darkness”, picking up a book that lived up to it’s promise was refreshing.

True to form, the story line keeps Stephanie Plum on her toes – caught between the bad guys, bad luck and two handsome men. With LuLu the ex-hooker on her side and Joyce Barnhardt at her throat, the addition of a woman claiming to be the enigmatic Ranger’s wife who’s main goal in life is to wreak havoc on “the other woman” throws Stephanie off her stride. Determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, she embroils herself in a child kidnapping scheme, gets shot at, stalked, abducted, Tasered, raises Morelli’s and Ranger’s blood pressure and somehow comes out on top. In a nice twist, her car manages to escape relatively unharmed in this one.

With Grandma Mazur joining Sally’s rock/disco band, the new gay funeral home directors, a job opening for a newbounty hunter at the office and a handful of mad-cap apprehensions, this novel will keep you turning pageswithout a break for coffee (and who needs coffee with Stephanie Plum providing a written sugar high). Whether ornot the book resolves the Morelli / Ranger dilemna is something you’ll have to read for yourself.
