Stephanie Plum's dream vacation to Hawaii was a bust. She comes back to Trenton to discover that the man she sat next to on the plane was found dead at the airport. Several people are looking for a photograph she once had in her possession. Two men posing as FBI are following her around town. A woman claiming to be the dead man's fiancee wants the picture. And, a Somali hitman named Razzle Dazzle is hot on her trail. Stephanie's biggest problem...her nemesis, Joyce Barnhardt. Joyce is wanted for murder and has moved into Stephanie's apartment and refuses to leave until Stephanie help her.

At eighteen books in the series, there is nothing new going on. Most of this book is a re-hash of Stephanie's previous antics. Stephanie's love life is the same; still choosing between Morelli and Ranger. I used to laugh at this series, but this book barely made me smile. Right now I just read these books out of habit. My rating: 3 Stars.
