Description
The twenty-seventh entry in the #1 New York Times bestselling series isn’t just the biggest case of Stephanie Plum’s career. It’s the adventure of a lifetime.When Stephanie’s beloved Grandma Mazur's new husband died on their wedding night, the only thing he left her was a beat-up old easy chair…and the keys to a life-changing fortune. But as Stephanie and Grandma Mazur search for Jimmy Rosolli’s treasure, they discover that they’re not the only ones on the hunt. Two dangerous enemies from the past stand in their way—along with a new adversary who’s even more formidable: Gabriela Rose, a dark-eyed beauty from Little Havana with a taste for designer clothes. She’s also a soldier of fortune, a gourmet cook, an expert in firearms and mixed martial arts—and someone who’s about to give Stephanie a real run for her money. Stephanie may be in over her head, but she’s got two things that Gabriela doesn’t: an unbreakable bond with her family and a stubborn streak that will never let her quit. She’ll need both to survive because this search for “fortune and glory” will turn into a desperate race against time with more on the line than ever before. Because even as she searches for the treasure and fights to protect her Grandma Mazur, her own deepest feelings will be tested—as Stephanie could finally be forced to choose between Joe Morelli and Ranger.

With its blue-collar Baltimore setting, engaging and quirky characters, outrageous situations, and conversational tone, Tim Cockey's Hitchcock Sewell mysteries offer a great alternative for Janet Evanovich fans -- just be warned that instead of a female bounty hunter, you'll be getting a charming and smart-mouthed bachelor...who happens to be an undertaker. -- Shauna Griffin
Those who enjoy Mary Kay Andrews for her humorous, strong-willed, yet often flawed female characters will enjoy the stand-alone novels of Janet Evanovich. While Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series also features this type of main character, her stand-alone novels are more in keeping with Andrews' humorous, romantic tales. -- Nanci Milone Hill
Both authors write contemporary romance as well as very popular mystery novels set in ethnic neighborhoods. Regardless of genre, these are character-driven, upbeat and humorous works with engaging settings, quirky supporting characters, and independent, outspoken women. -- Lynne Welch

For Stephanie Plum fans, English mystery author Liz Evans offers up feisty private eye Grace Smith, who--despite missing out on a wacky extended family like Stephanie's--isn't lacking in the "oddball friends" department. Wisecracking humor abounds in this series, as do zany plots--and details about life in a small English village. -- Shauna Griffin
Quirky secondary characters, fast pacing, snappy dialogue, and sassy heroines make up Janet Evanovich's and Nancy Bartholomew's mystery series.

Both Anthony Bruno's Loretta Kovacs novels and Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum books deal in humor, sassy dialogue, action, and fast pacing with the occasional turn to a more serious tone. While Kovacs seeks out parole violators, Plum earns a living as a bounty hunter. -- Shauna Griffin
