Girl With Two Names

Book Two
She survived the first lie. Now the system is writing the next one.
Plebe year at the United States Naval Academy is supposed to be brutal—but predictable. For Samantha Williams, it becomes something else entirely: escorts she didn’t earn, “wellness” checks she didn’t request, and paperwork that keeps changing shape every time she touches it.
When an administrative review quietly spreads beyond Bancroft Hall, Sam learns the Academy doesn’t need a courtroom to end a career. It only needs a file. A missing page. A label that sounds like concern.
As NCIS begins tracing who’s been inside her record—and who’s been inside her space—Sam is offered an easy exit: resign, stay silent, and let the institution keep itself clean. But the pressure doesn’t stop at the Yard. It reaches the one person who once pulled her through a different door and into a new life.
Someone is steering the process. Someone is turning her identity into leverage. And as the circle of truth closes to a handful of officers and agents, Sam realizes the most dangerous part of being retained isn’t staying.
It’s being watched.
