Publisher's summary

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.

Critic reviews

"Long before the John Travolta film of The General's Daughter...Nelson DeMille's seventh mystery was the breakout hit of his career. The rapid-fire dialogue and scenes are cinematic, and the storytelling puts most movies to shame....This is one racy read, and it crackles with authenticity. DeMille is a Vietnam veteran who does for military justice what John Grisham does for civilians." (Amazon.com review)

If you liked the movie, you'll like this.

First book I've listed to after seeing the movie. Both were enjoyable. Scott Brick was great as always and having background into the making of the movie cleared up some discrepancies between the two. Easily stands on its own though.

Exciting

This was another of DeMille's books that I had waited for a long time to hear. My wife had read it much earlier. It's an engrossing tale that reveals a lot about the "Code of Honor." Good job Nelson!

Excellent!

Absolutely entertaining, great narration! A listeners dream.. The story is quite imaginative, Sharing the domino effect of betrayal caused by misplaced loyalty that only a few can understand.

Truly addicting

Great read, you can't get enough. Attention to detail is fantastic, and is a true reality of how the generations have changed over time.

Nelson DeMille+Scott Brick+John Travolta= HEAVEN

Before I begin no John Travolta is not a narrator but having seen the movie before reading the book I found he is a perfect match for this story. Scott Brick is at his best and if I didn't love John Corey so much I might swap over to Paul Brenner's team.

Finally

Thank you to this author for finally presenting us with a heroine that is both intelligent and nurturing. I am so fed up with female characters who because they’re portrayed as intelligent cannot display any feminine qualities.
Scott Bricks gets his guy to a T !
