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).

Stephanie Plum is being stalked by a nut case. A crazy woman who dresses in black and carries a gun. Oh, and she also has a thing for Ranger, more than a thing, actually. She’s Ranger’s wife. But wait, things get even crazier. It turns out Ranger has a daughter and she’s been kidnapped. Twelve Sharp, you really need to check it out. A hilarious read.
I love this book! Any time I am in need of some comic relief, I find that Janet Evanovich does the trick. I re-read this one recently because it is probably my favorite out the whole series. You get more insight into Ranger as a character, the love triangle between Stephanie, Ranger and Joe is ever present and there are so many laugh out loud moments. It’s a great read.
That had to have been the most INTENSE book so far in this series. What will the relationship between Stephanie and Ranger be like now and how will Joe fit in?
She is a fantastic author. Easy read and keeps your attention. Characters are humorous too. I’ve read almost all of her books.
Love all the Stephanie Plum disasters;)
One of my favorite Stephanie Plum books. If you haven’t read the series, I suggest you start at One For the Money and go forward. But this one is worth the wait.
I am a die hard Stephanie Plum fan! These are fun to read in any order! I own the whole series and read and re-read them!
Love the Stephanie Plum series. Kind of fun reading about someone fumbling through life.
Really fun, you will find yourself giggling through out.
A must read series for pure enjoyment.
I have read most all of her books. have never been disappointed
I love the entire Stephanie Plum Series. It’s a great easy read!
Sandwich is ALWAYS fun!
Never a dull moment in Janet’s books, very entertaining.
A mystery that makes me laugh out loud.
Great series!
4 out of 5 stars to Twelve Sharp, the 12th book in the “Stephanie Plum” cozy mystery series written in 2006 by Janet Evanovich. I really enjoyed this book, given its focus on the mysterious Ranger. Stephanie is being stalked. She’s not sure who it is, but the person is scary. She soon learns out this person has a connection to Ranger — it’s his ex-wife. At the same time, Ranger’s daughter has been kidnapped, and someone suspects he’s behind it all. But for what reason? As the book progresses, you learn how much Stephanie Plum is really torn up about Ranger, despite her feelings for Joe Morelli. While the back and forth is starting to bug me (which man will she choose!), given Ranger is my favorite character, it was a strong book full of information and subtle vibes. And sometimes not so subtle! Always a good book to curl up with on the couch, this won’t disappoint. And at least it’s a bit different from the normal shenanigans where Plum is trying to track down a kooky bail jumper. There’s plenty of things happening here tho… between underlying tensions, fear and confusion, she’s still her normal fun mess!
All of her books are like this, very fun to read.
Awesome character. After reading you still thing of Stephanie plum. Great fab story. Read them all!!
Ive read 1 thru 23 of stephanie plum novels and theyre my favorite i love them. Cant wait to read 24 & 25. They are fun reads.
This whole series is just fun to read. All of her books are light, quick reads that are meant to put a smile on your face,and they always do.
Stephanie Plum is my hero. She sucks at being a bounty hunter, her side-kick is hilarious, Ranger is gorgeous, and Joe is a cop. Together there are lots of laughs, tense interactions with the bad guys, but it makes me want to read the next one.
