Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Thegripping murder mystery about an upstanding military officer - the base commander's daughter - who's been leading an unsavory double life.
When a professional military woman with a pristine reputation is found raped and murdered, a preliminary search turns up certain paraphernalia, and sex toys that point to a scandal of major proportions, The chief investigator is reluctant to take the case when he learns that his partner will be a woman with whom he had a tempestuous affair and an unpleasant parting. But duty calls and intrigue begins when they learn that several top-level people may have been involved with the "golden girl" - and many have wanted her dead.
"DeMille is a master at keeping the reader hanging on to see what happens next." - Associated Press
Reviews
DeMille's best!
5By North Shore Girl-n-CaliSuperior!two thumbs up
5By Pooting Rannelson does it again. great read. finished it in a day and a half. as with every demille book i have read, he never disappoints...A terrific book!
4By JROsterholmA terrific book! Dramatic, with military and family tensions that are palpable. Intense as it evolves from tragic death to discovery of the motivations. The book was better than the movie. DeMille has a better skill with women as crucial characters than folks such as Cussler and others in the action/military/thriller genres. Troubling, but a great read.
