Main Body

In Ten Big Ones by Janet Evanovich, we follow Stephanie Plum through yet another adventure. This time, her stomach gets her into trouble. As well all know, Stephanie can eat, and does, all the time. Well this time she happens to be kicking back at the deli, enjoying a plate of nachos when the place is robbed by the Red Devils, a well-known gang.

As a witness who could ID the person behind the devil mask, Stephanie could now be the person who puts the leader of this group of brutes behind bars,something that leader knows. In this book he’s busily trying to keep Stephanie quiet, by offing her, and has hired a hit man to do the job while the men who always seem to be there for her, boyfriend Joe Morelli and the sexy, handsome, mysterious bounty hunter, Ranger are keeping an eye on her backside.

While police are hunting down Junkman, Stephanie is breaking a few laws of her own, breaking into Rangers place which could not only get her in trouble with the law, but also Morelli who wants her as far from Ranger as possible. Luckily he’s not around; he just lent her his truck where she found a key to his place.

As always, Grandma Mazur, Lula and the rest of Stephanie’s family make their appearances for guilt, humor and getting her into more trouble throughout the book. I thought overall this was a fun read. By now, you expect a lot of the types of things people will say and the situations they will get in throughout the book, but it’s still a lot of fun to be involved in it and get to go along for the ride, or the chase or whatever else craziness she can get into.

The Narration

I have heard C.J. Critt in a number of the other Stephanie Plum novels and she does a great job at bringing you into the story and using her voice to create a bridge from one character to the next.
