As typically in a Plumian mystery, nothing goes simply, and the complexities are, as usual, absurd. Ranger moves into Stephanie's apartment and takes to following her around in disguises that include adding color to his clothing. The plan is to protect Stephanie even while they use her as bait to lure Scrogs into the open. Morelli naturally moves in to keep an eye on Ranger, which leaves Stephanie choking on the testosterone clouds. And Scrogs keeps stun gunning Stephanie every time they meet and then slipping away unnoticed.

As you can see it's the usual mix of mystery, mayhem, and comedy for Stephanie Plum, especially when you add in the fact that Lula has joined Sally's band as a lead singer, and Grandma Masur is going to be a backup singer when they play the old folk home gigs.
