Moral Compass: A Novel

Danielle Steel never fails to satisfy a reader's heart with her powerful storytelling voice that captures every aspect of a character's mind, heart and soul. With her latest release MORAL COMPASS she takes her reader through a journey of acceptance, denial and consequence. The first chapter wallops quite a punch of characters to keep straight, but once the story line truly begins, it's easy to follow and delivers an emotional plot. I couldn't put it down!Saint Ambrose Preparatory School has an excellent reputation for developing powerful minds who go on to pedigreed educational endeavors and prestigious careers. After more than two centuries of being a male only student body, the first 140 female enrollees are walking through the hallowed doors for the first time.A Halloween night alcohol fueled adventure leads to one student being in the hospital near death and the lives of those involved being changed forever. The questions of who will step forward to tell what happened and lead to the capture of who assaulted her weaves a powerful story with people and lives being changed forever.I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys an in depth story of secrets, lies and corruption. It was obviously light on the romance aspect because of the sensitive nature of the book, but the character nuances and emotional upheaval were spot on.

Money doesn't buy happiness. The students at Saint Ambrose Prep will tell you that. Saint Ambrose is a school for the elite. Many of the students have parents who are divorced, in the process of divorcing or just too busy for their children. The school has just become co-ed and has welcomed their first class of girls. Everyone seems to have adjusted well to having girls around.Halloween was a day that changed the lives of some of the students. Chase had a bottle of tequila. They found an out of the way place where no one would find them. Tommy, Gabe, Jamie, Rick and Steve joined in and helped finish off the bottle. Before it was done Vivienne happened by and they persuaded her to join them. This was a recipe for disaster and it happened. Nothing would ever be the same.And that is all you get from me. This book deals with everyday issues and real people and that your actions do have consequences . It doesn't matter how much money you have. I have been a fan of Danielle Steel's books since way back when and find they just get better and better. I loved every minute of this book and couldn't turn those pages fast enough.

Good story but too many names involved that confuses me.in the beginning not sure who is who only in latter part I was able to put puzzle together

Danielle did her research well. A person got raped at n elite private school and the people who knew about it kept quiet but with the help of two very good detectives, they flushed the people out who knew about the rape and finally they were able to get the rapist and accuse him of this. You don't realize that so many people's lifes have been changed or destroyed due to this fact and I am glad that it shows in the book what the procedures are for the victim, their families; but also the family members of the people who committed this crime and have to live with it for the rest of their lifes. To me, Danielle Steel always gives you a message in her newest book and I treasure that. Thank you so much for putting this RAPE CASE on paper so we all can share it.

Well written and keeps you on the edge of your seat with outstanding story line as only D.S. can. Brilliant!!

Im a die hard fan of Danielle Steel but there was too many character that did not need to be in this story. Otherwise good story.

DS's last few books have been a home run for me; this one seems more of a triple ;) Moral Compass is very well written, interesting subject, good lessons, and a compelling story. But it lacked something for me. I'm not even exactly sure what? Having said that, I'd def recommend this book! I guess I can't expect every book to be a home run 😂

I consider this a great explanation for young adults how they can find themselves in a great life long scar on them by simply by making very bad choices once they are away from the guidance of their parents and choosing the wrong friends.

Un libro muy humano que trata de temas de actualidad

彼女の作品は殆ど読んでいますが、これまでの路線と少し違う気がしました。読み易さからすると、多少　抵抗感がありました。

Another fantastic book written by Danielle Steele not as exciting storyline or exciting as the novel Spy written by Danielle SteeleBlog

Quiet morally written. I was wondering how Danielle Steele was going to complete this book.

Loved that book
