At the request of her many fans—Terri Blackstock revisits the heroic cast of characters in this fifth book in her best-selling Newpointe 911 series In Line of Duty, a bomb explodes at the Icon International building in New Orleans while lawyer Jill Clark Nichols is in the top floor boardroom. The thirty-story building goes up in flames and fire departments from all around the area are called in. The firefighters from Newpointe are especially concerned since they know Jill is inside the building. Dan, her husband, rushes in to save her. But as firefighters work to evacuate the upper floors of the building, a second and third bomb explode, causing the lower floors to cave in. Firefighters and civilians are buried beneath the rubble. When the smoke finally clears, a count is taken. Jill narrowly escapes the chaos of the explosions and fire only to find Dan missing. Were the bombs the act of a terrorist, or a scheme coming from a heart of greed? Can Jill’s faith carry her through these long days of pain and uncertainty? And will Dan survive this tragedy . . . or sacrifice his life in the line of duty?

"All of these Newpointe 911 novels are fun, fast paced reads. I really enjoyed them, however.....if you are an avid reader and your eyes are drawn towards misprints and editing mistakes....BEWARE. I have never found so many mistakes in my life. It drove me insane. "
— Heather (5 out of 5 stars)
" This was a good read. The bad guy that was exposed towards the end surprised me. I will definitely be reading more of her material. Her faith based writing really shows how your own faith can be used in day to day living. "
— Shelley, 1/4/2014" Amazing suspense with Christian values! Loved it! "
— Sophie, 12/26/2013" I think that this series got better towards the end of it. Trail by Fire (book 4)and Line of Duty were probably my favorites of the series. I loved Ashley's character in book 5 and would love to see what happens with her. "

— Debbie, 9/25/2013" unfinished but interesting. "
— Erika, 7/22/2013" Even though this is the third in this Newpointe 911 series, it is the first I've read. Very well written, with characters who are "real" -- struggling with relationships and trying to come to a resolution. I am definitely going to read more books by this author. "
— Veronica, 5/29/2013" Just finished Line of Duty by Terri Blackstock. The first book I've read by this author and I could hardly put it down. Not a book to be reread in my opinion, but a good one to read and pass along to friends :) "

— Heather, 11/7/2011" The story was interesting and kept my attention. It sounded a little too close to stories told by survivors of 9/11 and to me by using it in a book like this it belittles their experiences. "

— Mom, 5/6/2008Terri Blackstock made a decision more than a decade ago that permanently changed the direction of her writing career. She had grown to become an award-winning secular novelist of over thirty published titles. And yet she was miserable, and her career left her unfulfilled. One night she decided she would never again write something that was displeasing to God. Since then she has written more than thirty novels, many of which were New York Times bestsellers, and was given the Retailers Choice Award in 2007 for best Christian novel in the general fiction category for Night Light. She lives in Mississippi with her husband, Ken.
