High Five

By: Janet Evanovich

Narrated by: Debi Mazar

Out of bail skippers and rent money, Stephanie throws caution to the wind and follows in the entrepreneurial footsteps of Super Bounty Hunter, Ranger, engaging in morally correct and marginally legal enterprises. So, a scumball blows himself to smithereens on her first day of policing a crack house and the sheik she was chauffeuring stole the limo. But hey, nobody's perfect! Anyway, Stephanie has other things on her mind. Her mother wants her to find Uncle Fred who's missing after arguing with his garbage company; homicidal rapist Benito Ramirez is back, quoting scripture and stalking Stephanie; vice cop Joe Morelli has a box of condoms with Stephanie's name on it; and Stephanie's afraid Ranger has his finger on her trigger. The whole gang's here for mirth and mayhem in Janet Evanovich's High Five. Listen at your own risk in public places.©1999 Janet Evanovich; (P)1999 Audio Renaissance, a division of Holtzbrinck Publishers, LLC

Critic reviews

“Actress Mazar has just the right sassy streetwise accent to fit the first-person voice of Evanovich's hero, Stephanie Plum. Mazar sounds poised yet real in her role as the New Jersey-based bounty hunter. She gamely throws herself into the dramatic ‘bits' along the way, playing out the dialogue scenes with relish.” —Publishers Weekly

"What did she say"

I often could not understand what the reader said. Her accent was cute but she spoke way way to fast. I wondered if she spoke so fast because it was an abridged version, which I have never bought before. I'm leery about buying book 6 as it's the same reader and abridged. I may just skip to book 7.

High Five

Good storyline awsome writer but the narrater of this particular audio version is awful. If you can I would skip the Audio Book and get the paperback.

Debi Mazar is a good actress, bad narrator.

The story is alright and the minimal romance leaves me wanting more of the story. However, the next book is narrated by Debi Mazar, as this one was. I like her as an actress but very much dislike her as a narrator. I don't want to listen to her in another book but want to know the story. What to do, what to do.....

Hate the narrator!

Can't stand this narrator but really want to hear the whole series. At least it was abridged and I didn't have to put up with her for too long. One more with her. Sigh.

no life to the characters

liked the story did not like the narrator!! she read too fast ran sentences together and did not give the characters life like the narrator in the first 4 books!!
