A review by latas
The Academy by Robert Dugoni

5.0

I hadn't heard of the author until recently when I came across a review of one of his full length novels. The average rating of 4.2 with over half a mil ratings is quite impressive. I picked up this book to get a feel of his writing before going into his novels. And I approve :-)
This short story gives an introduction into Tracy Crosswhite's character. The author has packed in all the relevant details in just 44 pages.

She handles the interview so well, I almost stood up and clapped. "What are you going to do if you get preganant?" Her response- "What do the men do?" . The next question, "What if you get a boyfriend and he gets you pregnant?". Her reply - "Then he can stay home and take care of the baby". Atta Girl ! You have shown it to all those who think women should sit at home and reproduce.

She knows to hit where it hurts to get back to bullies. I wish everyone had her temperament to stand up to perverts like Nolasco, who abuse their positions of power.

With such amazing characters, I can't wait to read the other books in the series.
