![]() And if the Junkman doesn't find her first. There's only one safe place, and it has Ranger's name all over it-if she can find it. With super bounty hunter Ranger acting more mysteriously than ever (and the tension with vice cop Joe Morelli getting hotter), she finds herself with a decision to make: how to protect herself and where to hide while on the hunt for a killer known as the Junkman. It would be just another day in the life of Stephanie Plum, except that she becomes the target of a gang-and of an even scarier, more dangerous force that comes to Trenton. A robbery leads to an explosion, which leads to the destruction of yet another car. But Stephanie Plum and her partner, Lula, are clearly in the wrong place at the wrong time. ![]() It begins as an innocent trip to the deli-mart, on a quest for nachos. She's Stephanie Plum, and she kicks butt for a living (well, she thinks it sounds good to put it that way.). Her mother's convinced she'll end up dead. She's a target for every psycho and miscreant this side of the Jersey Turnpike. She's accidentally destroyed a dozen cars. Janet Evanovich is the hottest author in America, and her Stephanie Plum novels have taken the nation by storm! ![]()

Why would I need nameless? What special talents does he bring on the table? He does gets a glimpse of the future at one time during his investigation but he knew about that guy before hand.The information is not new to him. They had arranged everything for Nameless. They knew who the culprits were and they had proper information about them. Yes the story is about him but we see that most of the work on the case has already been done by Ace and his crew. The antagonists in the book are despicable things and you are glad that they got what they deserved.Īlthough i enjoyed reading the book but there were times while reading when I was thinking why Nameless was needed in this story.
