Overview

Maj. Tom Gates had too much to drink and pushed a cadet too far -- and it will explode into a political firestorm that could leave careers, lives, and West Point itself, in ruins. Sen. Lamar Bruckner has his eye on the White House, but his target is West Point. He condemns the Academy as a waste of taxpayer money -- and Gates' momentary lapse in judgment is the first charge in a smear campaign that could propel Bruckner to the presidency. Caught in the middle is Wayne Holder, a 4th-year cadet, who faces a private conflict between honor and desire. Ruggero brilliantly captures the honor and the controversy, the glory and the human flaws of West Point and its people.
