Reviews

'Evanovich's series of New Jersey comedy thrillers are among the great joys of contemporary crime fiction...' - GQ Magazine 'Packed with her familiar wicked ear for dialogue...Plum is not just a smart private eye but a heroine with a sense of humour' - Daily Mail 'The mere fact that Evanovich has stuck at this formula for 18 books is extraordinary. All feature the hair-brained adventures of the inept but charming NY bounty hunter Stephanie Plum; a New Jersey gal with lots of pluck' - Manly Daily

Lorelei King continues to shine as the narrator of Evanovich's long-running series about feisty New Jersey bail bondswoman Stephanie Plum. The wry humor of the book is evident from King's rendition of the opening lines: "New Jersey was 40,000 feet below me, obscured by cloud cover. Heaven was above me, obscured by the thin skin of the plane. And hell was sitting four rows back." Plum's flight home from Hawaii is typically atypical; instead of a relaxing trip, a neighboring passenger vanishes while the aircraft stops in Los Angeles, and a mysterious photograph he was carrying becomes the subject of an intense clash between the bad guys and the FBI-with Plum caught in the middle. King-who enhances the text with her spot-on narration-has no equal when it comes to voicing characters of the opposite sex, and her pacing perfectly matches the book's breezy tone. Listeners new to the series will want to seek out the previous 17 installments. A Bantam hardcover. (Nov.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
