One for the Money: International Edition

Stephanie Plum Mysteries, Book 1

De: Janet Evanovich

Narrado por: C. J. Critt

You've lost your job as a department store lingerie buyer, your car's been repossessed, and most of your furniture and small appliances have been sold off to pay last month's rent. Now the rent is due again. And you live in New Jersey. What do you do?

If you're Stephanie Plum, you become a bounty hunter. But not just a nickel-and-dime bounty hunter - you go after the big money. That means a cop gone bad. And not just any cop. She goes after Joe Morelli, a disgraced former vice cop who is also the man who took Stephanie's virginity at age 16 and then wrote details on a bathroom wall. With pride and rent money on the line, Plum plunges headlong into her first case, one that pits her against ruthless adversaries - people who'd rather kill than lose.

The New York Times Book Review calls Stephanie Plum "a Jersey girl with Bette Midler's mouth and Cher's fashion sense." In Stephanie Plum, Evanovich has created a resourceful and humorous character who stands apart from the pack of gritty female detectives.

Nice!

Came back for this one, started later in the series. I wasn’t disappointed In The least! Great book! Awesome start!

Love Janet Evonovich!

This book is mystery/comedy at its finest. I always seek this author, especially the Stephanie Plum series.

The character development!

The “Burgh” description and “its Rules” are so well written! An outstanding, flowing read. You won’t regret a minute.

I can’t wait for the next Stephanie Plum novels.

I watch the movie and jumped down the rabbit hole, that is Stephanie Plum. I have read every one of her novels and went on to read( or listen to) all of her other books. I wait every year for the next one to come out.
The main character is likable and we all have friends that sort of just fall into their lives, with no advanced planning. Stephanie is one of those people. I enjoy getting involved in her adventures. These are good light-hearted reading with life thrown in for a little action.

The beginning of a great series!

i liked it very much and have read her books over and over!They are so fun.
