Description
Book SynopsisIt''s a race against time when a child goes missing...
The world of Stephanie Plum has never been wilder than in Hard Eight, the eighth fast-paced mystery in the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. The perfect read for fans of Lee Child and JD Robb.
Raves for the Stephanie Plum series: ''Plum is not just a smart private eye but a heroine with a sense of humour'' (Daily Mail); ''Utterly delightful'' (Cosmopolitan); ''As smart and sassy as high-gloss wet paint'' (Time Out).
Stephanie can''t say no when a neighbour begs her to find a missing family member - not even when local mob man Eddie Abruzzi becomes linked to the disappearance, and threatens to end Stephanie''s search by ending her life.
Stephanie is going to need help and someone to watch her back. Since she''s on the off with cop Joe Morelli, that leaves her mentor and tormentor, Ranger. And that could be the most dangerous thing of all...
