Synopsis

Miami is still freakin' humid. The nights are even hotter. And there's a body on ice. And that's just the beginning of this adrenaline-rush of a hot-wired ride from phenomenal number one New York Times bestselling author Janet Evanovich.

A woman with a taste for speed and a talent for breaking the rules, Barney also knows a little too much about cheating. First there was Hooker and that salesclerk. Now she's convinced one of the competitors is up to no good on the track. Snooping to find evidence, Hooker and Barney "borrow" a NASCAR hauler. Turns out, the hauler is carrying two race cars and a dead guy. It looks like Barney and Hooker are facing multiple counts of grand theft auto and homicide.

So buckle up as Barney, Hooker, a 150-pound bundle of Saint Bernard love named Beans, and the Super Cigar Ladies Felicia and Rosa shift into gear on a wild race around South Florida and Concord, North Carolina.

Everything you always wanted to know about righteous indignation, stealing an eighteen-wheeler, and sex in the fast lane.

About this title

Review:

Praise for ‘Motor Mouth’:

‘Evanovich does funny as well as thrills and spills, so it’s smiles all the way to the chequered flag.’ Marie Claire

‘Alex Barnaby more than adequately fills [Stephanie Plum’s] shoes... the light-hearted narrative zips blithely along, full of jokes and comic asides, but backed up by a convincingly detailed backdrop.’ Observer

Praise for ‘Metro Girl’:

‘Always a delight... very enjoyable... the humour is irresistible. One can only look forward to the next Metro Girl adventure in the – fairly certain – knowledge that it will be as good as this one.’ The Times

‘Good fun.’ Sunday Telegraph

‘This latest won’t disappoint... the jokes are great and the dialogue is as tight and honed as a South Beach sunbather’s buns... sizzles along.’ Marie Claire

‘This book has fast-lane fun written all over it... ‘Metro Girl’ is so full of innuendo and sexy sunshine, you’ll forget it’s cold and miserable outside.’ Cosmopolitan

Praise for Janet Evanovich:

‘Hilarious reading, with a gorgeous fistful of believable and only occasionally murderous eccentrics.’ Mail on Sunday

‘Evanovich’s comic surrealism is in the same league as Carl Hiaasen’s.’ Marcel Berlins, The Times

‘Janet Evanovich’s name raises expectations of a laughaloud story...an entertaining frolic.’ Sunday Telegraph

‘Punchy, saucy and stacks of fun.’ Mirror

‘The pace never flags, the humour is grandly surreal and the dialogue fairly sizzles off the page.’ Irish Times
