Bountiful bounty hunter Stephanie plum goes looking for a missing relative and stumbles into a massive conspiracy involving the garbage company, a bank manager, the Jersey mob, and a cheapskate senior citizen-Don Juan. Meanwhile, she's saddled with a Failure-to-Appear in the person of vertically-challenged Randy Briggs ("a little person, Toots"), is plagued by the cars that go BOOM in the night, pursued by Benito Ramirez, and torn between two hotties, Morelli and Ranger--neither of whom could be considered husband-father-provider material.
Will Stephanie prevail? Will she find out who left the body parts in an overfilled garbage bag the day her uncle disappeared? Will she find out who's bumping off garbage company employees left and right? Will she succumb to Ranger or Morelli? Will she EVER learn to keep her gun loaded?
Read and find out. And laugh, laugh, laugh...
