Book excerpt: HONOR HOUSE is a contemporary drama about sexual assault on campus, fraternity culture and the abuses of a powerful politician and serial predator. The book's protagonist, Nick Delamore, long compromised by old loyalties, elusive memories and guilt, searches for answers and atonement. Delamore needs reinvention as he drinks heavily to mask his personal and professional failures, misspent good fortune and shirked responsibilities. Once a Pulitzer Prize finalist as an investigative reporter, native New Yorker Delamore has been "banished" to a dreary Rust Belt town, where he works at a small market newspaper. His shallow existence will be shaken by the suicide of his longtime friend, Jesuit priest Alex Merten, his niece's campus sexual assault, and the relentless advocacy of his activist ex-wife, Megan Bradley. Delamore tries to revive his journalistic career when he investigates crimes at a local college. But his ultimate redemption will hinge on derailing the Ohio gubernatorial campaign of former frat brother Bruce (Bru) Van Pelt.
