Carrie Vaughn knocks another one out of the park with the fourth in her Kitty Norville series. Somehow Vaughn creates a very believable, girlie-girl (but not annoying) Kitty, while never shirking her responsibilities to our heroine's "wolf" side and it's darker demands. It's easy to empathize with Kitty's need to satisfy her human desire for normalcy (or what passes in our Society) and her animal desires. Kitty does the usually does the right thing, even after a struggle with her own survival instincts. And there's a nice romance on the side that is very realistic as two individuals who might not have been attracted to one another tenatively feel their way thru all the peaks and valleys of a newborn relationship complicated by their paranormal side. (And Kitty's attraction to his cousin!) Throw in a very believable secondary but not lesser sub-plot involving health issues for Kitty's mom, and this book rocks! Oh, and did I forget to mention the vampires and their struggle for supremecy over Denver....?
