If you've read any of these books you know that Stephanie loathes the air Dickie breathes. In LM13, Stephanie is trying to find her ex-husband Dickie Orr. Evanovich certainly leaves some bread crumbs in that direction.
I do sense and hope that Stephanie is getting ready to make some changes in her life. This book is much more focused on Stephanie working her cases and less on her personal life.
LEAN MEAN THIRTEEN isn't a total bounce back, but it was a pretty good book. Of course, all of this is suspect since I entered the store with the store coupon which discounted the sale price for the new release. So what are the odds that there would be two stinkers in a row? I then snatch the book from the shelf and march myself to the checkout. I think to myself, "It can't be as bad as the last book." Then I recall that over the course of the series there were some installments that were better than others. My story, and I'm stickin' to it, goes like this, a year goes by and I'm wandering the book aisles of my local Barnes and Noble when I spy the latest Evanovich hardcover and 13th Stephanie Plum book. It's a cat-and-mouse game for Stephanie Plum wherein the ultimate prize might be her life.If you remember my disappointment last year with TWELVE SHARP you are probably wondering if I've lost my mind or won the lottery, or at the very least what possessed me to buy LEAN MEAN 13. Is Dickie dead? Can he be found? And can Stephanie Plum 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. Now Dickie has disappeared, and Stephanie is the natural suspect in his disappearance. Going completely nutso while doing the favor for Ranger, and trying to apply bodily injury to Dickie in front of the entire office And it turns out Ranger's favors always come with a price. Turns out, Dickie's also back to doing Joyce Barnhardt. Ranger needs Stephanie to meet with Dickie and find out if he's doing something shady. Another fifteen minutes after that, Stephanie filed for divorce, hoping never to see either one of them again.ĭoing favors for super bounty hunter Carlos Manoso (aka Ranger) Stephanie was married to him for about fifteen minutes before she caught him cheating on her with her archnemesis, Joyce Barnhardt.
New secrets, old flames, and hidden agendas are about to send bounty hunter Stephanie Plum on her most outrageous adventure yet!
