Wicked Business

A Lizzy and Diesel Novel

By: Janet Evanovich

Narrated by: Lorelei King

Janet Evanovich, mega-bestselling author of the beloved Stephanie Plum series, is back and better than ever. Her novels, hailed by GQ as “among the great joys of contemporary crime fiction,” deliver rollicking adventure with crackling wit and hilarious mayhem. And, now, one of the hottest writers today returns with dynamic duo Lizzy and Diesel to prove that when hunting down bad guys, the real fun is in the chase.

When Harvard University English professor and dyed-in-the-wool romantic Gilbert Reedy is mysteriously murdered and thrown off his fourth-floor balcony, Lizzy and Diesel take up his twenty-year quest for the Luxuria Stone, an ancient relic believed by some to be infused with the power of lust. Following clues contained in a cryptic nineteenth-century book of sonnets, Lizzy and Diesel tear through Boston catacombs, government buildings, and multimillion-dollar residences, leaving a trail of robbed graves, public disturbances, and spontaneous seduction.

Janet Evanovich does it again and gives us another exciting un-put-down-able read that is striking a chord with readers everywhere!

Critic reviews

Praise for Janet Evanovich

“No less than her plotting, Evanovich’s characterizations are models of screwball artistry. . . . The intricate plot machinery of her comic capers is fueled by inventive twists.”—The New York Times

“[Evanovich’s novels are] among the great joys of contemporary crime fiction.”—GQ

Great Sequel

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I had read the 1st one and was excited to get the 2nd one. The audible version sucked me in and had me laughing out loud. The author really can weave a fun, fast-paced story.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Really, you know it's all going to work out in the end, but it keeps you on your toes thinking, "Wow, what next!"

Which scene was your favorite?

Gosh, I couldn't name just one. It's a fun read though. Hmmmm.....The dare to sleep naked, maybe Glow's spells on Hatchett, Anarchy with fire. Nope, can't pick just one.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, but I did take just a couple of days and listened to the book on my travels.

Any additional comments?

Give me more!

Wickedly Funny!

What did you love best about Wicked Business?

This is a fun-filled delightful story with many laughs. It's light reading with a quirky main character "Lizzy" and of course a handsome and sexy Diesel to keep her safe from harm. What I loved best is the humor in the story. I didn't want to listen to anything heavy and this proved to be exactly what I was looking for.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

All that and more and I hope there will be another in this series soon!

Which scene was your favorite?

I have to admit when Lizzy's friend "Glo" was trying to concoct a spell to help Hatchett get more of a back bone against Gerwulf Grimoire and as she's just learning magic from a book mixed up her spell from "float" to "bloat" leaving Hatchet with a terrible case of smelly farts was totally burst out loud funny!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I listened to the book at different times and enjoyed it a lot.

Any additional comments?

Lorelei King never disappoints when it comes to an excellent narrator and Janet Evanovich stories are always good in my opinion.

Wicked Business

The story was interesting. I think I like some other books by this author. I like the bounty hunting series better.

Always looking forward to the next

I am always looking forward to Janet E's books, and wait impatiently for the next book - this book DID NOT DISAPPOINT. Highly recommend this book.
