Stephanie Plum is thinking her career as a fugitive apprehension agent has run its course. She's been shot at, spat at, cussed at, fire-bombed, mooned, and attacked by dogs. Time for a change, Stephanie thinks. Time to find the kind of job her mother can tell her friends about without making the sign of the cross.

So Stephanie Plum quits. Resigns. No looking back. No changing her mind. She wants something safe and normal. As it turns out, jobs that are safe and normal for most people aren't necessarily safe and normal for Stephanie Plum. Trouble follows her, and the kind of trouble she had at the bail bonds office can't compare to the kind of trouble she finds herself facing now. Her past has come back to haunt her. She's stalked by a maniac returned from the grave for the sole purpose of putting her into a burial plot of her own. He's killed before, and he'll kill again if given the chance. Caught between staying far away from the bounty hunter business and staying alive, Stephanie reexamines her life and the possibility that being a bounty hunter is the solution rather than the problem. After disturbingly brief careers at the button factory, Kan Klean Dry Cleaners, and Cluck-in-a-Bucket, Stephanie takes an office position in security, working for Ranger, the sexiest, baddest bounty hunter and businessman on two continents. It might not be the job she'll keep for the rest of her life, but for now it gives her the technical access she needs to find her stalker. Tempers and temperatures rise as competition ratchets up between the two men in her life---her on-again, off-again boyfriend, tough Trenton cop Joe Morelli, and her bad-ass boss, Ranger. Can Stephanie Plum take the heat? Can you?

Between the adventure and the adversity there's attitude, and Stephanie Plum's got plenty in her newest misadventure from Janet Evanovich, Eleven on Top.

Critic reviews

"A pleasing romp." (Publishers Weekly)

"It's wonderful to watch both a beloved character and a cherished author grow, and both Stephanie Plum and Evanovich do not disappoint." (Booklist)

A tasty

Stephanie has decided that being a bondswoman is too dangerous. She is off looking for another job. In the process, she just may find that being Stephanie Plum is dangerous.

I have read--or listened to--every Stephanie Plum novel Evanovich has written. For pure fluff, the combination of Evanovich and King is unbeatable. Great literature? Probably not. A wonderful bit of entertainment? Absolutely! I won't miss a single one of these. I've even downloaded some Plum that I've already read because I think King does such a great job of creating the characters.

Still going strong

This series continues to be fun after all these years. This is a bit of a departure for Stephanie, who takes a break from being a bounty hunter and tries to find a new career for herself, with often hilarious results, as we've come to expect.

Perfect Evanovich

Just keeps getting better- great for the 2 hour commute every day
love this book!

Another winner!

This book had me laughing aloud! I think this is one of the best Stephanie Plum novels I have read. I love Lorelei King's narration so always.

More of the same

I enjoyed hearing it on audible. With the exception of the constant "said" when there is dialogue. This book is more of the same from the series. Not one of my favorites.

Thru the Plums

If you could sum up Eleven on Top in three words, what would they be?

Must read all

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Janet E. is a good story teller. Just enough mystery to keep you from putting the book down.

What about Lorelei King’s performance did you like?

her voice portrayals are so well done that you can

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, but I must sleep sometime

Any additional comments?

Janet Evonovich is one of my favorite authors. I will be reading and re-reading her books. I hope she never retires because I will never tire of her books.

Funniest Plum so far!

I had to pull the car over to stop myself from crashing because I was laughing so hard! Love it! Can't stop downloading these, my only fear is catching up and having no more to read! Janet Evanovich is my hero! Amazes me again and again.

fun as usual

I love these books I can't wait to get through all of them. thank you

Can’t get enough

I’m so happy I stumbled upon this series. I’m not an avid book reader/listener….well I wasn’t, but I certainly am now! :) On to book 12!

Stephanie Plum Grows Up

While Stephanie Plum and her family were as crazy as ever, there seemed to be a difference in Stephanie, as certain maturity. This was a very entertaining book, I found myself laughing out loud many times. I enjoyed the further development of the character "Bob" and his strange eating habits (you'll see). A recommended listen.
