Janet Evanovichs erfrischende und unvergleichliche Heldin Stephanie Plum erfreut sich einer steigenden Beliebtheit und gibt in "High Five" wieder ihr Bestes. Als "Kopfgeldjägerin" führt sie dem Staat die auf Kaution entlassenen, einer Straftat verdächtigten Flüchtigen, tot oder lebendig wieder zu. . . zumindest versucht sie es. Der erste Band der "Stephanie Plum-Serie" "One for the money", wird übrigens bald von Tri-Star verfilmt!
Out of bail skippers and rent money, Stephanie Plum throws caution to the wind and follows in the entrepreneurial bootsteps 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. Read at your own risk in public places.
