What's Stephanie Plum up to now?
- Her Uncle Fred has disappeared
- A body turns up in a garbage bag
- She's got a nasty bookie following her around town
- Grandma Mazur has her hands on the stun gun
- Stephanie can't keep a car for more than 48 hours
- Two men are trying to get her into bed
- She has nothing to wear to the Mafia wedding
- And there's an angry little man (don't call him a dwarf!) who won't leave her apartment
Bail jumping in Trenton is down to small potatoes. Stephanie's only open case is a
small bond, for a small violation, committed by a small person who raises Stephanie's
frustration level in big ways. So, short of money and long on bills, Stephanie comes up
with a plan--diversify! Signing on as an intern with entrepreneurial Super Bounty Hunter
Ranger, Stephanie ventures into Ranger's mostly morally correct and marginally legal
operations.
None of this makes vice cop Joe Morelli a happy man. The cop in him can't help but
wonder as to the source of Stephanie's expensive new car. And the rest of him, the man
who's been friend and lover to Stephanie, can't help but wonder if there's more to the
partnership than meets the eye.
The internship is downgraded to second priority when Uncle Fred goes missing. Even
though Grandma Mazur is sure he was abducted by aliens, Stephanie sets out to look for
Fred. He's a perfectly average senior citizen, and he's disappeared without a trace while
running errands. He's left his ten year old Pontiac station wagon locked up nice and neat
in the Grand Union parking lot, the cleaning is carefully arranged in the back seat, and
his wife is at home, waiting for him to return with the bread and the milk and the olive
loaf balogna. Locked in the top drawer of his desk are photos of a body, dismembered and
stuffed into a garbage bag. And locked away in the computer files of another average
citizen are the clues that will lead Stephanie to Fred.
Criminally original and stone brilliant, this Intermediate Bounty Hunting Survival
Manual is blockbuster entertainment.
