Alien Diplomacy

Being newlyweds and new parents is challenging enough. But nothing’s ever easy for Jeff and Kitty Katt-Martini, particularly when they’re learning how to stop being super-being exterminators and Commanders in Centaurion Division while mastering the political landscape as the new heads of American Centaurion’s Diplomatic Corps.

Kitty’s brand of diplomacy and lobbying isn’t quite as smooth as Jeff’s – Washington parties, lobbyists of all stripes, and politicians from all states and countries present challenges a well-stocked iPod and quirky sense of humor aren’t always up to handling. But when a shadowy assassination plot and a new set of anti-alien conspirators are identified, Kitty’s the diplomat for the job – in between “Mommy and Me,” “Diplomacy for Beginners,” and “The Washington Wife” classes.

Surrounded by people who seem like enemies but might be friends and vice versa, with everyone in the Diplomatic Corps, Alpha Team, and Airborne all feeling like failures, the addition of some old friends into the mix is quite welcome. But as the explosions, assassination attempts, and murders pile up, the question shifts from “who’s the target” to “will we all survive to see next week?”

Aided by some surprising sources, armed with only their wits, and dressed to kill, it’s up to Kitty and the Diplomatic Corps to stop the bad guys from unleashing mayhem on all the world’s leaders. But will Kitty trust the right people, at the right times, or will going her own way prove deadly – not just to her, but to her daughter, Jamie?
