Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum is back in Janet Evanovich's Fearless Fourteen. In her latest adventure, Plum has to help her boyfriend, Joe Morelli, figure out who keeps breaking into his house. Morelli's cousin is released from prison after serving an armed robbery sentence and the whole family finds themselves targeted.

Fictional character Stephanie Plum applied for a secretarial position with her cousin's bail bonds company after losing her job as a lingerie dealer. Plum wound up becoming a bounty hunter instead. Evanovich has said that the character and her series were both inspired by the movie Midnight Run, which starred Robert De Niro as a bounty hunter.Janet Evanovich: Janet Evanovich Official Site
