Review: High Five — Janet Evanovich
Posted on | July 28, 2010 | No Comments
High Five is one of my favorites. Stephanie takes on the search for her Uncle Fred, who everyone seems to think probably just wandered off. After talking with her aunt (who isn’t too upset by her husband’s disappearance), she is presented with photographs of body parts in a garbage bag. Apparently her uncle was the photographer.
Stephanie spends a good portion of the novel trying to take FTA Randy Briggs into custody. Briggs is a little person. Evanovich’s descriptions of Randy Briggs’ evasive maneuvers are hilarious. She takes her first gig working for Rangeman (Ranger’s business) picking up a teenage (snotty) sheik from the airport. He steals her car, but proves useful later on.
Benito Ramirez is released from prison and has put Stephanie at the top of his hit list.

2. Garbage Truck – Blown up when parked next to Porsche
3. BMW – Stolen, but the thief left the plates and registration number
