It takes a couple episodes to get rolling, but this show is probably Jonah's best work. His character is schizophrenic, and along with Emma Stone, a defensive girl with a foul mouth, he undergoes a drug trial featuring elves, criminal networks, and animal smuggling to make the world a happier place, because we confront our own issues best when elaborate setups are involved.
  
The 13th book sees the return on Dickie Orr as a main character in the series. Maybe I shouldn't say return, Dickie has been mentioned & appeared in several of the previous PLum novels, but in this one he is front & center. Dickie is unknowingly involved in a drug smuggling, gun running, money laundering business that is fronted by his law firm. As usual Stephanie pulls herself into the mix in a strange way & eventually finds herself being chased by mafioso armed with flame throwers.
