Lean Mean Thirteen

by Janet Evanovich, 352 pages

Stephanie agrees, against her better judgement, to help out Ranger and plant a bug in her ex-husband, Dickie Orr's office.  Now when Dickie goes missing, with only a trail of blood left as a clue, Stephanie is the number one suspect.  Even more irritating, Joyce Barnhart, Stephanie's archenemy, has been seeing Dickie again, and she holds Stephanie personally responsible for his disappearance.  Stephanie will have to track Dickie down, dead or alive, if she wants to stay out of jail.

Dickie is the perfect character that I love to hate.  It seems almost a shame that Stephanie has to invest the energy in tracking him down, but the mystery gets to be bigger than the goal of finding Dickie.  And that's why I keep reading!
