OSS: Stephanie Plum helps Ranger find his kidnapped daughter.
Yup, that's right. We learn a bit more about Ranger and his past in this book, and the antics are just great. Laugh out-loud funny in some places. Lula has started singing in a rock band and chooses outrageous outfits to wear (and Grandma Mazur joins the group for a bit....). A gay male couple now runs the funeral home. We are introduced to Melvin Pickle, a sad, shy, guy who is the most recent addition to Stephanie's conglomerations of weirdo friends.
Evanovich is so clever when it comes to some of the apprehensions that Stephanie attempts. How does she keep coming up with such ideas? Funny, silly, crazy...and sometimes, she really does get her man (or woman). This time the crew is looking for a new bounty hunter and the array of applicants they get is downright hilarious. But the kidnapping of Ranger's daughter and the daunting task of trying to find and catch the kidnapper - who is impersonating Ranger - gets pretty hairy. It helps to know that Stephanie will always overcome.
Ranger AND Joe are shown about 50/50 in this one. FFFFUUUUNNNNN!
