It's another home run for crimestopper, Stephanie Plum, in the wacky "Fearless Fourteen." She manages to find Loretta, a kidnap victim and catches the kidnapper who is looking for information leading to a hidden robbery treasure. The kidnapper seems to be everywhere and able to stop every plan to circumvent his plan to recover the treasure. When Stephanie is able to figure out how the kidnapper is getting all his information, she easily unravels the mystery.
In the meantime, the plot takes a lot of twists and turns through the lives of a bunch of wacky characters, including a teen video addict nicknamed Zook and his gamer buddies, a stalker named Gary who makes weird predictions about the health and welfare of an aging country rock star who is visiting Trenton. All these extra characters make Stephanie and her male buddies, Morelli and Ranger, look pretty normal.
This may be the most inventive and wacky of all Evanovich's Stephanie Plum books and gets an A plus on my list of summer reads.
