Welcome to Trenton, New Jersey, where bounty hunter Stephanie Plum’s life is about to implode in Janet Evanovich’s wildest, hottest novel yet! FIRST A STRANGER APPEARS While chasing down the usual cast of miscreants and weirdos Stephanie discovers that a crazed woman is stalking her. THEN THE STRANGER REVEALS HER SECRETS The woman dresses in black, carries a 9mm Glock, and has a bad attitude and … Glock, and has a bad attitude and a mysterious connection to dark and dangerous Carlos Manoso …street name, Ranger.
NEXT, SOMEBODY DIES
The action turns deadly serious, and Stephanie goes from hunting skips to hunting a murderer.
SOON, THE CHASE IS ON
Ranger needs Stephanie for more reasons than he can say. And now, the two are working together to find a killer, rescue a missing child, and stop a lunatic from raising the body count. When Stephanie Plum and Ranger get too close for comfort, vice cop Joe Morelli (her on-again, off-again boyfriend) steps in.
Will the ticking clock stop at the stroke of twelve, or will a stranger in the wind find a way to stop Stephanie Plum…forever? Filled with Janet Evanovich’s trademark action, nonstop adventure, and sharp humor, Twelve Sharp shows why her novels have been called “hot stuff” (The New York Times), and Evanovich herself “the master” (San Francisco Examiner).

The Stephanie Plum novels are some of the best mystery books in the publishing world. It is always fun to read these books as Janet Evanovich has a great sense of humor. You never know what Grandma might do next as is the same with Stephanie’s co-workers and main boyfriend, Joe Morelli. You can’t count on any of them to do what one would think is the right thing to do. However, they always solve the murders and put the bad ones away! They are always a fun read.
This book is a nail-biter and full of action. Janet Evanovich creates the most unusual characters. The narrator, Lorelei King, is fabulous! She is the absolute best at creating entertaining voices. You have no trouble differentiating between characters. Stephanie Plum, a bounty hunter, is a street smart Jersey girl. Those street smarts come in real handy as well as having her “bodyguards” Ranger and Morelli. She is in love with both of them. But this time around Ranger is also in danger. His daughter has been kidnapped and Stephanie is the bait. Ranger is willing to give his life to save his daughter. Unpredictable!
I have all of the Stephanie Plum numbered series, and Twelve Sharp is my favorite. Stephanie is always involved in scary events, but this book is moving. Ranger gets my vote for dessert!
Stephanie helps Ranger with a tricky situation. More of Ranger’s past is revealed. Stephanie is still torn between Ranger and Morelli.
One of the standouts of the whole Plum series
Love this author!
I love Stephanie Plum!
Enjoyed but needs to decide on one of her “boyfriend “ am a little tired that the author keeps stringing us along!
I love this Evanovich series. The characters are laugh out loud funny. I look for each of them in each edition. Start with book one for the best experience but each will stand alone.
Stephanie Plum keeps me laughing with her antics. Thanks, Janet Evanovich for giving us light-hearted escapes with the misadventures of this Jersey girl!!
I like this whole Stephanie Plum series until about half way through (up to 25 now) and it got repetitive with no growth or resolution with the characters. So this one is good if you are not reading the series or you can just start the series here.
i DO ENJOY STEPHANIE PLUM AND LULU. NO ONE WRITE A ZANY CHARACTER LIKE EVANOVICH. i WISH SHE WOULD LET STEPHANIE BECOME A LITTLE MORE COMPETENT. THE PLOTS AND SETTINGS ARE GREAT.
I laugh out load at some point in every single book with Stephanie Plum and the wacky people in her life. I have gotten a lot of people hooked on this series.
I have read all of the Stephanie Plum series and they make me laugh, something not too easy to do.
I love all her books. Great story teller.
