A Welcome Return to Entertaining Humor

Turbo Twenty-Three is the latest in the popular Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich.

Stephanie, as long-time readers know, is an unlikely bounty hunter working for her deviant cousin Vinnie. It's a formula that has proven durable for more than 23 books, and the gang's all here -- sidekicks Lula and Connie and love interests Morelli and Ranger.

Despite knowing the formula of a murder mystery involving bad guys, blowing up stuff, mooching dinner at mom's house and a wacky grandma, Evanovich's many fans enjoy the humor and the familiarity.

That enjoyment has dimmed a bit in some recent books in the series. But with Turbo, Evanovich rallies and delivers a book more consistent with her earlier books. There's even some twists and surprises for faithful readers.
