Stephanie Plum is thinking her career as a fugitive apprehension agent has run its course. She's been shot at, spat at, cussed at, fire-bombed, mooned, and attacked by dogs. Time for a change, Stephanie thinks. Time to find the kind of job her mother can tell her friends about without making the sign of the cross.

So Stephanie Plum quits. Resigns. No looking back. No changing her mind. She wants something safe and normal. As it turns out, jobs that are safe and normal for most people aren't necessarily safe and normal for Stephanie Plum. Trouble follows her, and the kind of trouble she had at the bail bonds office can't compare to the kind of trouble she finds herself facing now. Her past has come back to haunt her. She's stalked by a maniac returned from the grave for the sole purpose of putting her into a burial plot of her own. He's killed before, and he'll kill again if given the chance. Caught between staying far away from the bounty hunter business and staying alive, Stephanie reexamines her life and the possibility that being a bounty hunter is the solution rather than the problem. After disturbingly brief careers at the button factory, Kan Klean Dry Cleaners, and Cluck-in-a-Bucket, Stephanie takes an office position in security, working for Ranger, the sexiest, baddest bounty hunter and businessman on two continents. It might not be the job she'll keep for the rest of her life, but for now it gives her the technical access she needs to find her stalker. Tempers and temperatures rise as competition ratchets up between the two men in her lifeā??-her on-again, off-again boyfriend, tough Trenton cop Joe Morelli, and her bad-ass boss, Ranger. Can Stephanie Plum take the heat? Can you?

Between the adventure and the adversity there's attitude, and Stephanie Plum's got plenty in her newest misadventure from Janet Evanovich, Eleven on Top.… (more)

These books are like literary crack. I cant get enough of them but I know they are slowly destroying my mind. ( )
  MsTera | Oct 10, 2023 |
This is the 12th book that I've read by this author, and will likely be the last. I found the early ones in the Stephanie Plum series amusing (at 2 to 3.5 stars each), and sometimes laugh-out-loud funny. The late ones (25, 26, and 27) are terrible, and probably reflect the work of ghost writers. "Eleven on Top" was ok, but to me the madcap escapades grew tiresome and repetitive, along with "Stephanie's" sex addiction. Perhaps the author was out of ideas, or maybe I've read too many of her books. C'est la vie. ( )

Another fun installment in the Stephanie Plum series. Stephanie is an absolute walking disaster in this novel! I am not even sure why anyone takes a chance and hires her. I love Lula, Grandma Mazur, and Sally Sweet providing more comic relief in this novel. ( )

A surprisingly good time of a book for both mystery and non-mystery lovers! I'm glad a co-worker gifted this book to me. Otherwise, I would have never picked it up on my own. ( )
  AngelaLam | Feb 8, 2022 |
This Stephanie Plum book was definitely funny; there were some parts that had me almost laughing out loud, however, this book seemed to be a little slower than some of the others. I still plan to read all the way through the Stephanie Plum novels, but the later books don't seem to be as good as the first several. ( )
