Gray Girl

By: Susan I. Spieth

Narrated by: Linda Kimbrough

2014 Eric Hoffer First Horizon Award Winner! 2014 Eric Hoffer e-book fiction Winner! Cadet Jan Wishart has been falsely accused of an honor violation at West Point. She believes her accuser is also a predator, guilty of a much more serious crime. At the honor trial, Jan must defend herself and try to reveal his guilt. Yet, two hundred years of fraternal brotherhood stand in the way.

The worst is yet to come when Jan and her roommate sneak out after Taps one night. Their discovery in an unauthorized area is more likely to get them kicked out—or killed. Jan realizes the grayness of West Point is not only in its buildings and uniforms. Even honor isn’t always black and white. Relying on her wits and a few friends in the hostile environment of the U.S. Military Academy, Jan discovers the value of friendship, the genuine marks of leadership and her own inner warrior.

Powerful book about the West Point experience from a female pov

This book brought back memories I tried hard to forget after almost 30 years. I felt like the author interviewed me and my roommates. Some of the stories happened almost exactly like she wrote. Other times I felt a kinship and somewhat relieved that I was not alone in how I perceived some/most of my experiences during plebe year. Thank you for writing this book. From one OG to another.

Great Listen, unless you went there, but still great

I was a plebe when Susan was a firstie, and was in her company. Was great to hear her tell the tale as someone I knew, but didn’t know yet. The story was great. The reader, didn’t get enough knowledge beforehand. She could have had a little coaching on some wording and pronunciation, but otherwise did a great job. Look forward to the entire series.
