Description
The General’s Daughter by Nelson DeMille is a gripping military crime thriller and the first novel in the Paul Brenner series. Captain Ann Campbell, a West Point graduate and the daughter of legendary General “Fighting Joe” Campbell, is one of the most respected officers at Fort Hadley. But when her naked body is discovered bound and murdered on the army base’s firing range, the shocking crime threatens to expose secrets within the military establishment.
The investigation is assigned to Paul Brenner, an investigator with the Army’s Criminal Investigation Division, who works alongside Cynthia Sunhill, a fellow investigator with whom he shares a complicated past. What initially appears to be a straightforward case of rape and murder soon becomes far more disturbing as they uncover the extent of Ann’s private relationships and the secrets surrounding her life. Behind the polished uniforms and military codes of honour lies a world of corruption, betrayal and carefully guarded truths.
