About this audiobook

Janet Evanovichā€™s #1 New York TimesĀ bestselling sensationĀ Stephanie PlumĀ returns in herĀ twenty-forth thriller as mutilated corpses litter the streets of New Jersey...Ā 

Trouble comes in bunches for Stephanie Plum. First, professional grave robber and semi-professional loon, Simon Diggery, wonā€™t let her take him in until she agrees to care for his boa constrictor, Ethel. Stephanieā€™s main qualification for babysitting an extremely large snake is that she owns a stun gunā€”whether thatā€™s for use on the wandering serpent or the petrified neighbors remains to be seen.

Events take a dark turn when headless bodies start appearing across town. At first, itā€™s just corpses from a funeral home and the morgue that have had the heads removed. But when a homeless man is murdered and dumped behind a church Stephanie knows that sheā€™s the only one with a prayer of catching this killer.

If all thatā€™s not enough, Dieselā€™s back in town. The 6-foot-tall, blonde-haired hunk is a man who accepts no limitsā€”that includes locked doors, closed windows and underwear. Trentonā€™s hottest cop, Joe Morelli isnā€™t pleased at this unexpected arrival nor is Ranger, the high-powered security consultant who has his own plans for Stephanie.

As usual Jerseyā€™s favorite bounty hunter is stuck in the middle with more questions than answers. Whatā€™s the deal with Grandma Mazurā€™s latest online paramour? Who is behind the startling epidemic of mutilated corpses? And is the enigmatic Dieselā€™s sudden appearance a coincidence or the cause of recent deadly events? Ā

This book has something many other books don't have. An amazing story. It has the right touch of realism but just the right amount of fantasy along with it. This is the series that helped me enjoy reading. Thank you Janet keep up the great work
