Stephanie Plum, chasseuse de primes à Trenton, New Jersey, commence sérieusement à s'énerver ! Et pour cause : elle n'arrive pas à mettre la main sur Maxine Nowicki, pour laquelle le cabinet de cautionnement de son cousin, l'affreux Vinny, a fait une avance d'un bon paquet de dollars. Pire encore, chacun de ses déplacements provoque des catastrophes. Qui donc peut lui en vouloir au point que sa voiture explose et que son appartement brûle ? Comme l'insinue le très sexy Joe Morelli, policier, Stéphanie est une catastrophe ambulante à qui il offre l'hospitalité de son lit au nom d'une ancienne amitié lycéenne. Comment résister à tant de bonté ? Malgré les protestations de sa famille, Stephanie s'entête. Elle retrouvera Maxine coûte que coûte, d'autant qu'elle reçoit l'aide d'appoint de Sally, drag-queen aux charmes surprenants et… l'aide d'embonpoint de Lula prostituée noire d'une bonne centaine de kilos, très efficace et pour le moins persuasive face aux plus récalcitrants ! Dans cette quatrième aventure de Stephanie Plum, on retrouve le style drôle et décapant de Janet Evanovich qui a été traduite dans onze pays. Loin du politiquement correct, la romancière trace le portrait d'une jeune Américaine obstinée, ballottée entre indépendance, féminisme et irrésistible attrait pour un beau policier macho au grand cœur.--Claude Mesplède
