Plum Saturdays: Top Secret Twenty-One by Janet Evanovich

 

Hello, Fellow Book Worms and Book Dragons,

   

   
  Top Secret Twenty-One is written by Janet Evanovich and published by Bantam Books, a division of Random House. In this twenty-fifth book in the series, we find our heroine, Stephanie Plum, working through the everyday motions as a bond enforcement agent for her cousin Vinny's Bail Bonds office. Stephanie is inept with a gun and prone to having her car blown up. In Top Secret Twenty-One a famous used car salesman, Jimmy Poletti, is caught selling a lot more than cars at his dealerships. He is bonded through Vinny's office and conveniently misses his court date. That is when dead bodies begin to show up, and various explosions are detonated in the hopes of killing Poletti's bookkeeper, Randy Briggs.  

  But Poletti and Randy Briggs are the least of Stephanie's worries. Ranger's office is hit with a chemical attack that has halted his business. And the perpetrator may be connected to a dangerous assassin with a penchant for leaving human hearts as warnings to his enemies. 

  Top Secret Twenty-One is a wonderful read that keeps you on the edge of your seat.  Stephanie's cranky and paranoid parents are back. As is Lula with a maddening fear of "demon-possessed" feral Chihuahuas. And having Randy Briggs back had me smiling ear to ear. With humor to balance out the action, the finale arrived and it did not disappoint.

  Lorelei King is back to narrate Top Secret Twenty-One. Her grasp of various voices, accents, and sheer comedy contained in this book is a perfect marriage of the audible and the written word. I always welcome an Evanovich book that is narrated by King. 

  I gave Top Secret Twenty-One four out of five stars. For a fantastic and fun adventure look no further than Janet Evanovich.
