Visions Of Sugar Plums

Description

It's five days before Christmas and things are not looking merry for Fugitive Apprehension Agent Stephanie Plum. She hasn't got a tree. The malls are jam-packed with staggering shoppers. There's not a twinkle light anywhere to be seen in her apartment -- and there's a strange man in her kitchen. Sure, this has happened to Stephanie Plum before. But this guy is different. He's mysterious, sexy -- and has his own agenda. His name is Diesel, and he's on a mission. The question is, what does he want with her? Can he help her find a little old toy maker who has skipped out on his bail right before Christmas? Can he survive the Plum family holiday dinner? Can he get Stephanie a tree that doesn't look like it was grown next to a nuclear power plant? These questions and more, are keeping Stephanie awake at night. So bring out the plastic reindeer, strap on your jingle bells, and get ready to celebrate the holidays -- Jersey style.

This falls between HARD EIGHT and TO THE NINES
