Lean Mean Thirteen by Janet Evanovich

Stephanie agrees to do a a favor for Ranger by planting a bug on her ex-husband, Dickie Orr. Soon Dickie has disappeared and Stephanie is the prime suspect in the case. In order to clear her name, Stephanie investigates Dickie's life and his shady law partners, who have questionable clients and are probably involved in drug running. Stephanie is also trying to keep her finances afloat as a bounty hunter by bringing in a grave robber and a taxidermist who makes stuffed animal bombs. Evanovich has written another mystery filled with humor and quirky characters. Regular fans of the series will find the book enjoyable, but not a step forward in the Morelli vs. Ranger storyline.
