Kitty and the Dead Man's Hand

by Carrie Vaughn, 301 pages

What's a girl to do when wedding plans get to be a bit too much?  Elope to Vegas, of course.  Afterwards, Kitty plans to spend a relaxing weekend by the pool drinking frou-frou drinks and enjoying a short honeymoon.  Except her boss decides that this would be a great opportunity to film The Midnight Hour as a live TV show.  Plus Denver's master vampire, Rick, needs her to run one little errand.  Oh, and let's not forget the conflict with that ancient Babalonian cult, the magician who just might do real magic, the hotel full of bounty hunters in for the gun show and the fact that her fiance gets drawn into a high stakes poker game the same day that they're supposed to have a wedding.

This is one series that keeps getting better with each book.  In her 5th novel in the Kitty Norville series, Vaughn has upped the stakes, and crammed in more action and intrigue than ever before.
