Publisher's summary

Welcome to Trenton, New Jersey, where bounty hunter Stephanie Plum's life is about to implode in Janet Evanovich's wildest, hottest novel yet!

FIRST A STRANGER APPEARS
While chasing down the usual cast of miscreants and weirdos Stephanie discovers that a crazed woman is stalking her.

THEN THE STRANGER REVEALS HER SECRETS
The woman dresses in black, carries a 9mm Glock, and has a bad attitude and a mysterious connection to dark and dangerous Carlos Manoso …street name, Ranger.

NEXT, SOMEBODY DIES
The action turns deadly serious, and Stephanie goes from hunting skips to hunting a murderer.

SOON, THE CHASE IS ON
Ranger needs Stephanie for more reasons than he can say. And now, the two are working together to find a killer, rescue a missing child, and stop a lunatic from raising the body count. When Stephanie Plum and Ranger get too close for comfort, vice cop Joe Morelli (her on-again, off-again boyfriend) steps in.

Will the ticking clock stop at the stroke of twelve, or will a stranger in the wind find a way to stop Stephanie Plum…forever? Filled with Janet Evanovich's trademark action, nonstop adventure, and sharp humor, Twelve Sharp shows why her novels have been called "hot stuff" (The New York Times), and Evanovich herself "the master" (San Francisco Examiner).

12 Sharp

Love the story the way she describes the characters and the scene you imagine it while listening and the laughter and suspense and the sexy scenes. also the the authors family involvement and they way she uses situations to incorporate in her story and her involvement of charities in each of the books. Her characters have a life of there own. Stephanie and her family sound like they have the humor that Janet her family have had for years.

Ranger Revealed - Just a tiny piece of him

Grandma Mazur pops in with her always hilarious one liners and we have plenty of Ranger and Morelli. The plot is strong centered around the mysterious Ricardo Carlos Manoso...who needs to use Stephanies apartment as a safe house. But don't think Morelli is out of the picture. He is definitely in and makes no bones about what he'll do to Ranger if he crosses the line.

always fresh

I expected this series to get repetitious and am happy to be wrong. Evonovich continues to find new adventures and twists to every aspect of Stephanie's life.
