<b>#1 <i>NEW YORK TIMES</i> BESTSELLER<br><br>Powerhouse author Janet Evanovich€s Stephanie Plum novels are <b>€œas entertaining as ever€ (<i>Entertainment Weekly</i>)</b>, €œbrilliantly evocative€ (<i>The Denver Post</i>), and €œmaking trouble and winning hearts€ (<i>USA Today</i>).</b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>Stephanie Plum has her sights set on catching a notorious mob boss. If she doesn€t take him down, he may take her out.</b><br> <b> </b><br> New Jersey bounty hunter Stephanie Plum knows better than to mess with family. But when powerful mobster Salvatore €œUncle Sunny€ Sunucchi goes on the lam in Trenton, it€s up to Stephanie to find him. Uncle Sunny is charged with murder for running over a guy (twice), and nobody wants to turn him in€"not his poker buddies, not his bimbo girlfriend, not his two right-hand men, Shorty and Moe. Even Trenton€s hottest cop, Joe Morelli, has skin in the game, because€"just Stephanie€s luck€"the godfather is his <i>actual</i> godfather. And while Morelli understands that the law is the law, his old-world grandmother, Bella, is doing everything she can to throw Stephanie off the trail. <br>  <br> It€s not just Uncle Sunny giving Stephanie the run-around. Security specialist Ranger needs her help to solve the bizarre death of a top client€s mother, a woman who happened to play bingo with Stephanie€s Grandma Mazur. Before Stephanie knows it, she€s working side by side with Ranger and Grandma at the senior center, trying to catch a killer on the loose€"and the bingo balls are not rolling in their favor.  <br>  <br> With bullet holes in her car, henchmen on her tail, and a giraffe named Kevin running wild in the streets of Trenton, Stephanie will have to up her game for the ultimate takedown.
