Nothing's more Jersey than a good delicatessen. And if you are visiting Trenton, you can't do better than the Red River Deli. The coleslaw's edible and the oil in the deep fryer gets changed -- eventually. It's a tribute to quality management, but that's now in jeopardy because the last three managers have vanished. The only clue to each disappearance is one shoe left behind. Stephanie Plum, Jersey girl and bounty hunter extraordinaire, is stepping into the manager's shoes...well, shoe. The hottest detective on the force, Stephanie's boyfriend, Joe Morelli, is running down clues, and the always mysterious Ranger is sticking to Stephanie like pork roll to an egg sandwich.
