Two for the Dough is irresistible fun and powerful suspense entertainment from an acclaimed author who is already a national celebrity.

It’s Stephanie Plum, New Jersey’s “fugitive apprehension” agent (a.k.a. bounty hunter), launched to the globe by Janet Evanovich in the award-winning and bestselling book One for the Money.

Now Stephanie’s back again, armed with attitude-not to say stun guns, protection sprays, killer flashlights, and her trusty .38, Stephanie is after a new bail jumper, Kenny about Two for the Dough Mancuso, a young man from Trenton’s burg. He’s clean out of the army, suspiciously rich, and he’s just shot his closest friend.

With her bounty hunter pal Ranger stepping in occasionally to advise her, Stephanie staggers knee-deep in corpses and caskets as she traipses through back streets, dark alleys, and funeral parlors.

And nobody knows funeral parlors much better than Stephanie’s irrepressible Grandma Mazur, a female whose favourite pastime is grabbing a front-row seat at a community wake. So, Stephanie uses Grandma being a cover to check out leads, but loses control when Grandma warms to the actions, packing an awesome pistol. Much towards the family’s chagrin, Stephanie and Granny may quickly possess the elusive Kenny in their sights.

Fast-talking, slow-handed vice cop Joe Morelli joins in the case, since the victim is actually his young cousin. And if the project calls for an automobile stakeout for two with the woman who puts his sex drive in overdrive, Morelli’s not just one to object.

Low on expertise but learning fast, on top of resilience, and regardless of the help she gets from close friends and relatives, Stephanie eventually must face the danger by itself when embalmed areas of the body begin to arrive on her doorstep and she’s targeted for an awful death by the most loathsome adversary she’s ever encountered. Another case like this and she’ll be considered a real pro.
