Seven Up

Sexy New Jersey skip tracer Stephanie Plum returns. This time she's on the trail of DeChooch, an aging but dangerous bail-jumper. As she hunts DeChooch, she contends with her warring emotions over the two equally gorgeous men in her life: detective Joe Morelli and bounty hunter Ranger Manoso. Steph's engaged to Joe, but she's still tempted to break the age-old and universal rule that no woman should ever get involved with a man named Ranger.

"[This] madcap comic mystery is pure, classic farce--Jersey Girl style." - Ken-Ichi Abe (New York Times Book Review, 7/22/01)

"What makes Evanovich irresistible are...her snappy Jersey dialogue, the daffy supporting characters and all the hilarious scrapes Steph gets into...." - Lucy Creevey (Salon, 7/16/01)
