Tricky Twenty-Two by Janet Evanovich

Tricky Twenty-Two (Stephanie Plum, #22)

by Janet Evanovich

Raves for Janet Evanovich's novels: 'Stephanie Plum in ass-kicking form...utterly delightful' (Cosmopolitan); 'A laugh-out-loud page turner' (Heat); 'Plum is not just a smart private eye but a heroine with a sense of humour' (Daily Mail)

Something big is brewing in Trenton, New Jersey, and it could blow at any minute...

Stephanie Plum might not be the world's greatest bounty hunter, but she knows when she's being played. Ken Globovic (aka Gobbles), unofficial student leader, has been arrested for beating up the dean of students at Kiltman College. Gobbles has missed his court date and gone into hiding. People have seen him on campus, but no one will talk. Things just aren't adding up, and Stephanie can't shake the feeling that something funny is going on at the college.

As much as people love Gobbles, they hate Doug Linken. When Linken is gunned down in his backyard, the list of possible murder suspects is long. The only people who care about finding Linken's killer are Trenton cop Joe Morelli, who has been assigned the case, security expert Ranger, who was hired to protect Linken, and Stephanie, who has her eye on a cash prize and hopefully has some tricks up her sleeve...

I thought this was an improvement of the last several! She stayed away from some of the things that had become classic tropes in a plum book. There was some actual danger that was awesome. And things between Ranger/Steph/Morelli actual go somewhere. I'm actually looking forward to the next book!
Mrs. Plum is the SHIT!
