As I have said before, my grandmother had a name for work like Evanovich’s; toothache books. They aren’t going change your life or even make you think too deeply, but you will chuckle and, occasionally, guffaw.
This "in-between the numbers" book finds Diesel reappearing in Stephanie’s life, this time after a man named Wulf who is working with one of Stephanie’s FTAs. Only problem, Wulf seems to be able to shoot electricity out of his hands and dissappear at will. Stephanie reluctantly agrees to work with the hunky Diesel, if only to get his help out capturing the missing FTA . . . and get him out of her apartment.
This is much better than her last book, Finger Licking Fifteen, as Evanovich has be judicious in her use of Lula. Just enough for the humour, but not so much as to be annoying. Plum Spooky also differs as, like the other "Between the Numbers" books, it has a supernatural element. Not a heavy supernatural element, Diesel can open doors and start cars without a key. This is a great way to spend unwind when you are stressed and just need some brain candy, but nothing more.
