Janet Evanovich has begun a new series with The Recovery Agent (#1,082). Gabriela Rose is the eponymous recovery agent, ready to take on commissions to find and retrieve mostly lost or stolen works of art. She's managed to make a good living for herself in New York City after a disastrous earlier marriage.
When her coastal Carolina hometown is destroyed in a hurricane, she is determined to raise enough money to allow her parents and neighbors to rebuild. The key is in a treasure map hidden in the home she lost to her ex, Rafer, in the divorce. It involves the legendary Seal of Solomon and the Lost Treasure of Lima. It's off to the jungles of South America in pursuit...
This is a book that reads like a movie - think Romancing the Stone. It's a thoroughly enjoyable romp with no heavy lifting involved for the reader. It even got a few chuckles from my husband! I can't wait for the next installment in the Gabriela Rose adventures.
