Description

From “the most popular mystery writer alive” (The New York Times), the twenty-seventh thrilling 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.

    The same 2 pages are displayed for 80% of the book. I want a new book or my money back. I still do not know what happened to Grandma.
  • Great mystery

    Once more Stephanie, Lula, Ranger, Joe and Grandma are busy trying to solve the puzzle. This time the puzzle is a bit on the strange side. With a couple of new characters, a bit more home violence than we have seen before and a lot more Stef and Ranger intermingling, this is one of the best novels in the series. There are a few cons just no negatives, pardon my pun!!
  • Better than the last couple

    Like all the Stephanie Plum books this was enjoyable,entertaining and fun. Nice to read a book that is not going to make you cry. And as always have to wonder which man will she “keep”

    The ménage a trots of Plum, Morelli and Ranger has grown boring - as are the plots. Had hopes that this would get more sophisticated with each one. Won’t be reading any more Stephanie Plum books.
  • One of the best!

    One of the best of the whole series. I laughed out loud at the antics and then couldn’t turn pages fast enough with the drama. Delicious read!
  • Did not disappoint.

    Too much Ranger and not enough Morelli. Got silly at times.

    The WORST Stephanie Plum offering ever. I always immediately buy the books in this series because they’re a fun read. This one bored me...I literally fell asleep reading it several times. I forced myself to finish it because of the price. Maybe I’ve just outgrown the series. It seems to be the same old routine every time.

    Really! Was this auto written by a robot? Stephanie and Joe have broken up since he can’t deal with her ‘career’ that she is so bad at and can’t pay her rent. Ranger of course has to come help and they have bland sex. Bad guys are after Stephanie and someone is kidnapped. Funerals and viewings. Joe shows up at the end with cupcakes. Grandma is funny, the Mother drinks and the father is useless. Scramble all that and you get this and the last five books. Time to get Stephanie to counseling, a new man (or woman) that throws sparks and end this series.

    Always fun to read a Stephanie Plum book. It is like visiting an old friend . Sadly, this wasn’t one of my favorites. I usually laugh out loud while reading , didn’t happen this time. Still a quick, light hearted read,what I needed during this time. Look forward to Stephanie and the gang’s new adventure in 2021.
