Publisher's summary

This isn't just another case. This is family.

How far will Stephanie Plum go to protect the one person who means the most to her? The stakes have never been higher in this number one New York Times best seller from Janet Evanovich.

Grandma Mazur has decided to get married again - this time to a local gangster named Jimmy Rosolli. If Stephanie has her doubts about this marriage, she doesn't have to worry for long, because the groom drops dead of a heart attack 45 minutes after saying, "I do."

A sad day for Grandma Mazur turns into something far more dangerous when Jimmy's former "business partners" are convinced that his new widow is keeping the keys to a financial windfall all to herself. But the one thing these wise guys didn't count on was the widow's bounty-hunter granddaughter, who'll do anything to save her.

COULD NOT HAVE BEEN BETTER

The previous book was the worst of the series. I am happy to say that this book was one of the best.
The amount of humor was a huge improvement. The narration was great as usual in this series.
My main message is to long time fans. This book is worth the credit. I strongly considered not getting this book I AM GLAD I DID!

Worth the Wait

I'm a huge fan of the Stephanie Plumb series and preordered this one. I couldn't decide whether to rate it 4 or 5 stars. It's one of Janet Evanovich's best thought out stories with a very interesting plot... Lorelei King does a masterful job in bringing the characters to life.

In this one, Stephanie remains eternally 30 years old, but has a sense of aging and time passing her by. She's quite burned out, and starts asking some serious questions about her life. We see Ranger in a charming, little more human light. Morelli remains the quintessential cop.

Everything we love about Stephanie's ability to muddle through and solve very difficult crimes is here. Grandma remains a hoot, although in serious trouble in this episode.

In the end, as usual Stephanie saves the day, and she ends up no closer to making a decision between Ranger and Morelli, After 25 years, I'd like some resolution to that dilemma. which is why I chose 4 instead of 5 stars.

All in all, I highly recommend "Twisted Twenty-Six. You won't be disappointed.

Fun fun fun!!!

Twisted 26 is so hysterical! The characters are a riot! This is, to me, revitalized compared to her recent stories. Maybe it’s just me. But I REALLY especially enjoyed it!!! I may listen to it again it was so much fun!
The characters are a hoot! The narration is perfect! More inclusion of Stephanie’s dad in this one which is great.
Highly recommend!!!

One of her best!

I love her books. Story line was very good. I love the Jersey attitude that the characters have. And Stephanie’s “you don’t have to be good if you’re lucky”

Another plum crazy

While it gets a little old, the Stephanie back n forth between her job and her attractions to two men, it’s still comforting to read.

always enjoy

I enjoy the suspense, predictability, and humor that Janet Evonavich spins in these Plum tales. I really love it when Grandma Mazzer is a big part of the story line cause she is such a hoot! But Stephanie wouldn't be who she is without Lula too!
