"Two for the Dough" is book two in the Stephanie Plum series, and the sheen has not yet worn off the adventures of the world's luckiest inept bounty hunter.

Stephanie has the uncanny ability to be in the right place at the right time and still have everything go wrong. The simplest assignments turn into life threatening situations when she's around and when paired with her pistol packing Grandma, it's mayhem.

She is suppose to track down Kenny Mancuso, who happens to be related to Joe Morelli, her love/hate acquaintance since childhood. Kenny has allegedly shot his pal Moogey in the kneecap, and failed to appear in court, so it's up to the bounty hunter to get her man before cousin Vinnie pulls the case.

Of course, nothing is as simple as it seems, and soon she's coffin hunting, visiting funeral parlors and just to make life interesting, body parts keep turning up in inconvenient and unexpected places.

This is her most dangerous case to date and this time Grandma Mazur's life is also in danger. It's up to Stephanie to track down a psychotic killer before he gets to her.

Funny and fast moving, this one is a quick, enjoyable read.
