While chasing down the usual cast of miscreants and weirdos in Trenton, New Jersey, bounty hunter Stephanie Plum discovers that a crazed woman is stalking her. The woman dresses in black, carries a 9mm Glock, and has a bad attitude and a mysterious connection to dark and dangerous Carlos Manoso...street name, Ranger. The action turns deadly serious, and Stephanie goes from hunting skips to hunting a murderer. Ranger needs Stephanie for more reasons than he can say. And now the two are working together to find a killer, rescue a missing child, and stop a lunatic from raising the body count. When Stephanie Plum and Ranger get too close for comfort, vice cop Joe Morelli (her on-again, off-again boyfriend) steps in. Will the ticking clock stop at the stroke of twelve, or will a stranger in the wind find a way to stop Stephanie Plum...forever?--From publisher description.

Review of 'Twelve sharp' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Vinnie wants to earn some extra money and is paying bonds for more people than he should. Since Ranger has his own problems to deal with, Stephanie and Lula have to work extra time to find all the FTAs. Things get weird when a woman who introduces herself as Ranger's wife starts following Stephanie and even shoots at her.

I really enjoyed this novel, I laughed so much at "The What" rehearsing in Stephanie's parents home with grandma Mazur that I have to give this 5 stars. When you think things cannot get any crazier, Lula and grandma Mazur always think of something. I do not mind that there is not much character development, as long as the hilarious scenes keep coming I am fully entertained.
