Dead bodies start showing up in the burned out lot where the bail bonds office used to be. Stephanie and crew are working out of Mooner's mobile home. Morelli's Grandma Bella has put the eye on Stephanie, and Stephanie's own mother, fed up with her lack of commitment to the men in her life, has decided to fix her up with an old high school classmate. Add to that an FTA who thinks he's a vampire and a dancing bear, and Stephanie's life is just a little too interesting for comfort.
Smokin' Seventeen was an entertaining read with a few funny moments, but not the best Stephanie Plum book I've read. For one thing, it was pretty obvious from the start who the killer was- obvious to the point that it seemed odd that it took Stephanie so long to figure things out. Also, her relationships with Ranger and Morelli just seemed a bit off in this one. I don't want to say too much and spoil things, but I'm not quite sure where Evanovich is heading with this one. Maybe the next book will clear things up.
