Plum's Payoff

by FonzFan82

Stephanie Plum was broke so when her boss gives her a job she jumps at it. Perhaps she could have looked first. It had strings attached, but first, Ranger is assigned to go with her and second, it's not in New Jersey as usual. When they get to Milwaukee they find their FTA looks the fine, upstanding citizen that reported the case. Or is he upstanding as he appears.

Later that day, Joanie and her best friend, Jenny were sitting in one of the booths at Arnold's.

"Joanie, what is going on at Fonzie's garage?" Jenny asked.

"Why do you ask? All it was just a robbery," Joanie told her.

"Oh. Did a lot of money get stolen?" Jenny asked.

"I'm not sure of the amount, but it looks that way," Joanie answered.

"I'll bet. What did Fonzie do about his garage?" Jenny asked.

"All I know is that Fonzie reported the robbery. I'm not sure how a bail bondsman found out Fonz's garage being robbed," Joanie said.

"Huh?" Jenny said, not understanding what Joanie had just told her.

"That's what I heard, but I don't have many details to keep talking about it right now."

"Oh. Just like you, I'd be sticking around to find out what happens next," Jenny said.

She watched as Joanie nodded in agreement.

"Can I tag along with you to find out more about this so we can keep talking about this next time we talk about this?" Jenny asked.

"I don't think that's a such a good idea, Jenny. I'm sure Fonzie won't be very happy to let the whole town of Milwaukee gossiping about this robbery," Joanie told her.

"I understand," Jenny said.
