Captain Ann Campbell is a West Point graduate, the daughter of legendary General "Fighting Joe" Campbell. She is the pride of Fort Hadley until, one morning, her body is found, naked and bound, on the firing range.

Paul Brenner is a member of the Army's elite undercover investigative unit and the man in charge of this politically explosive case. Teamed with rape specialist Cynthia Sunhill, with whom he once had a tempestuous, doomed affair, Brenner is about to learn just how many people were sexually, emotionally, and dangerously involved with the Army's "golden girl." And how the neatly pressed uniforms and honor codes of the military hide a corruption as rank as Ann Campbell's shocking secret life.

It took me a long time to get to reading/listening this book, which is suprising since I admire Mr. DeMille very much. Some of the details are difficult to experience and I think it was this gifted author's intention. If you enjoy well written, intelligent books, with well-defined characters and a story that has something to say, then you'll love this book as I did. Also: Mr. Brick gives another outstanding performance!

… And One of those books you can hardly wait to resume if you’re driving from one event to the other and this is playing in car. This is my third Nelson DeMille, so I do enjoy his yarns, But in my mind the difference between a pretty good thriller and a great one depends upon the ultimate question “could it have actually happened?”. (Which is why I believe “Deliverance”, “The Day of the Jackal” and “To Kill a Mockingbird” are at the top of the genre,). As a career combat veteran soldier with not a little time as both an officer and in the enlisted ranks, Paul Brenner simply could not exist. With all respect to Vietnam veteran Nelson DeMille - soldiers neither talk nor act to each other – nor take such liberties with rank (Even if they are senior CID) as what was depicted. I served in the Special Forces and in the Judge Advocate General Corps where there is no shortage of familiarity, but no investigator would be so free range or flippant with Colonels and Generals. In addition, the very premise of a rogue Captain like Ann Campbell successfully acting out such an elaborate (and prolonged) agenda causes me to raise a skeptical eyebrow. But these are minor criticisms given every author’s right to exercise literary license, and, as I said above, this seizes the interest and doesn’t let go. So if you are looking for a thrilling who-done-it (and are willing to overlook the impossibly smart ass on steroids CW4) this is well worth your time.

Definitely a page turner…

I read this book every ten years or so to remind myself how good DeMille is and what good narration can do to make it even better! One of the better books by one of the better authors around.

Still a great read!!
