In KITTY GOES TO WASHINGTON, the second in Vaughn’s DJ werewolf series, Kitty Norville, late night radio host and werewolf, is called upon to testify at a Senate hearing on supernaturals. As a radio host, her physical identity has never been revealed-until now. She is unable to avoid the camera and the hounding by reporters. Immediately upon entering the nation’s capital, Kitty meets Alette, the city’s vampire Mistress. Alette is unlike any vampire Kitty has met before. There doesn’t appear to be any hostility, Alette welcomes to Kitty to her city and offers her protection. Alette even invites Kitty to stay at her residence, on the condition that Kitty keeps Alette apprised of her whereabouts. Kitty is chaperoned around the city by Leo, one of Alette’s minions. The vampire community isn’t the only one that welcomes Kitty wholeheartedly. She discovers a werewolf bar, its members solo, not part of a pack. They offer Kitty the closeness of a pack, without the issues with rank she experienced in her own pack. While waiting to testify, it becomes Kitty’s mission to find out more about Reverend Elijah Wood-head of a church that reportedly cures vampirism and lycanthropy-and Flemming, who works at the Center for the Study of Paranormal Biology. Kitty isn’t in DC for long before her life is threatened. KITTY GOES TO WASHINGTON is an excellent sequel and provides the same action and satire as the previous book. The story line is fast paced and exciting. The characters are extremely well-developed. A must-read for any fan of vampire/werewolf fiction.
