One for the Money: 1st Stephanie Plum novel
Stephanie Plum, an unemployed lingerie buyer, applies for a filing job with her cousin Vinnie Plum, a bail bondsman. Vinnie's assistant, Connie, tells her the job is taken, but suggests she start apprehending some clients who have skipped out on their bonds, starting with Joe Morelli, vice cop and onetime sexual acquaintance of Stephanie. He is wanted for murder one. Stephanie is in financial trouble, and wants to take the job, as she will get a percentage of the $10,000 bail bond, so she blackmails Vinnie into employing her, by threatening to reveal his use of a duck for sexual gratification. In trying to find Morelli, Plum attracts the attention of several interesting characters, including a heavy weight boxer by the name of Benito Ramirez who has a history of roughing up women. Along the way she also becomes chummy with a "full bodied" hooker named Lula who helps with what she can. On top of the strange people she meets along the way, her family still manages to make her eye twitch, with her elderly grandmother shooting chickens at the dining room table and her mother desperate for Stephanie to get a job and a husband. All and all, she has her work cut out for her.
The site is still currently under construction but we're accepting character applications. Everything should be up and running shortly. If characters are taken quickly, I can promise that there will be areas on the site you can go ahead and start playing in.
