Got one for you: "Epsilon Zeta" by Jock Young

I've really enjoyed reading "Epsilon Zeta" a new novel by Jock Young. I don't know him, but he's written a fictional portrayal of his fraternity at my school, Florida State in Tallahassee.
Young only thinly disguises the street names, business and geography of Tallahassee around the school. Anyone who knows the town and campus will instantly recognize all the landmarks.
Young does, however, use actual names of different fraternities and sororities in the story line. All, that is, except his own. Young is a Sigma Chi but he calls his fictional fraternity "Epsilon Zeta." Epsilon Zeta is the chapter designation for the Sigma Chis at FSU.
"Epsilon Zeta" is not a comedy but it is very entertaining with what I thought was a surprise ending.
Here's a review of the book by some writer at Penn State.
