Fiction. Mystery. Romance. Humor (Fiction.) HTML:#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Don’t miss Janet Evanovich’s short story “Pros and Cons” in the back of the book.
Catch a professional assassin: top priority. Find a failure-to-appear and collect big bucks: top score. How she’ll pull it all off: top secret.

 
Trenton, New Jersey’s favorite used-car dealer, Jimmy Poletti, was caught selling a lot more than used cars out of his dealerships. Now he’s out on bail and has missed his date in court, and bounty hunter Stephanie Plum is looking to bring him in. Leads are quickly turning into dead ends, and all too frequently into dead bodies. Even Joe Morelli, the city’s hottest cop, is struggling to find a clue to the suspected killer’s whereabouts. These are desperate times, and they call for desperate measures. So Stephanie is going to have to do something she really doesn’t want to do: protect former hospital security guard and general pain in her behind Randy Briggs. Briggs was picking up quick cash as Poletti’s bookkeeper and knows all his boss’s dirty secrets. Now Briggs is next on Poletti’s list of people to put six feet under.
 
To top things off, Ranger—resident security expert and Stephanie’s greatest temptation—has been the target of an assassination plot. He’s dodged the bullet this time, but if Ranger wants to survive the next attempt on his life, he’ll have to enlist Stephanie’s help and reveal a bit more of his mysterious past.
 
Death threats, highly trained assassins, highly untrained assassins, and Stark Street being overrun by a pack of feral Chihuahuas are all in a day’s work for Stephanie Plum. The real challenge is dealing with her Grandma Mazur’s wild bucket list. A boob job and getting revenge on Joe Morelli’s Grandma Bella can barely hold a candle to what’s number one on the list—but that’s top secret.
Praise for Top Secret Twenty-One
 
“The combination of biting dialogue, outrageous characters and intense story lines are consistent throughout. And [Janet Evanovich] novels are the true definition of a guilty pleasure.”—Associated Press
 
“Evanovich doesn’t disappoint. . . . [She] weaves setting, family, romance and crime to pull the plot of Top Secret Twenty-One forward.”Bookreporter.

This was not an enjoyable read. It never seemed to decide what genre it belonged to. Was it a mystery, yet we usually knew who was the problem. Was it a romance, yet bounty hunter Plum is a sarcastic smart ass. I could not decide. The many escapes from death by the villain seemed to be set up to keep the novel going. Any villain with the credentials she was facing would have done her in the first time just because of her loud mouth.

Using the Little Person character, Randy Briggs, for humour I found tasteless and not funny. Obviously from the number of books she has written and sold, either this was not up to her usual work or there are a lot of readers who are not bothered by the shallow effort. ( )

I just love the light, laugh out loud adventures of Stephanie Plum. This one didn't have as many of the absurd adventures, but I loved the real plot line this time. ( )

OMG, grandma Mazur's bucket list is great and I love that she got to check off one of the items on her list during this story. Briggs is funny, and I love that it could literally be anyone that is trying to kill him. Another great installment in the Stephanie Plum series. ( )
