Motor Mouth

Description

Alexandra 'Barney' Barnaby and race driver Sam Hooker are back in a new bestseller from the creator of Stephanie Plum. It's a multi-car pile-up of crime, sex, property damage and lip-gloss. Barney and Hooker. A double act that strikes fear into the heart of, well, just about anybody with a pulse. Alexandra 'Barney' Barnaby, aka 'Motor Mouth', works - and plays - with top race-car driver Sam Hooker. Together, they're caught up in a wild race around Florida and North Carolina after their 150-pound St Bernard, Beans. He's been dog-napped by the same guy they suspect of killing one of Hooker's cheating rivals. Now, one stolen eighteen-wheeler later, it's action and love in the fast-lane all the way...

Janet Evanovich grew up in New Jersey, but now lives in New Hampshire. Her series of books featuring Stephanie Plum has won her millions of fans and frequently been on the bestseller lists. She has received many awards including the Crime Writers' Association John Creasey Award and CWA Silver Dagger Award.

Praise for 'Motor Mouth': 'Evanovich does funny as well as thrills and spills, so it's smiles all the way to the chequered flag.' Marie Claire 'Alex Barnaby more than adequately fills [Stephanie Plum's] shoes! the light-hearted narrative zips blithely along, full of jokes and comic asides, but backed up by a convincingly detailed backdrop.' Observer 'Fast, furious and sexy.' Mirror Reviews for 'Metro Girl': 'Always a delight! very enjoyable! the humour is irresistible. One can only look forward to the next Metro Girl adventure in the -- fairly certain -- knowledge that it will be as good as this one.' The Times 'Good fun.' Sunday Telegraph 'This latest won't disappoint! the jokes are great and the dialogue is as tight and honed as a South Beach sunbather's buns! sizzles along.' Marie Claire 'This book has fast-lane fun written all over it! 'Metro Girl' is so full of innuendo and sexy sunshine, you'll forget it's cold and miserable outside.' Cosmopolitan Praise for Janet Evanovich: 'Hilarious reading, with a gorgeous fistful of believable and only occasionally murderous eccentrics.' Mail on Sunday 'Evanovich's comic surrealism is in the same league as Carl Hiaasen's.' The Times 'Janet Evanovich's name raises expectations of a laughaloud story! an entertaining frolic.' Sunday Telegraph 'Punchy, saucy and stacks of fun.' Mirror 'The pace never flags, the humour is grandly surreal and the dialogue fairly sizzles off the page.' Irish Times
