From the Back Cover
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?

When the smoke clears
A firemans nightmare, a thirty story building and a bomb that blows the lid off of your Imagination. Put yourself inside a burning building on the top floor, this is what has happened to Attorney Jill Clark Nichols. The Icon International building in New Orleans is now on fire and the fire is spreading. Fire trucks are dispatched from all over the city to fight the unthinkable type fire, the high rise. Jills husband is on the job trying to save his wife, knowing she is on the top floor. He enters the building and it happens again, but this time not just one bomb but two or more bombs go off causing the floors to fall burying people beneath the concrete and steel. The fireman fight the fire until they gain control and as the smoke clears the body count begins. Jill seemed to have made it out of the burning building, but her husband seems to be missing. This book is a must read to find out, is her husband Dan one of the dead or is there more to the story than it seems. Were the bombs an act of a terrorist or is there some one else to blame?

Engaging Pageturner
After having read the first four novels in the Newpointe 911 series, I was thrilled when Ms. Blackstock decided to release another that weaves a Christian tale around corporate scandal and terrorism. Her flare is in penning pageturners, but specifically she excels at the Christian murder mystery genre, an ocean's distance from her previous works in the romance market. In a Judeo-Christian country market, you would think this sort of novel would be appealing to the masses, but secular society craves drugs, sex, and rock-n-roll. And oh, by the way, she doesn't ignore these topics in her novels. She just refuses to glorify them.

Blackstock's Best
This is the fifth book in the Newpointe 911 series and it is by far the best! Maybe it's because the character's were already familiar friends or because it addresses an emotional situation similar to what happened on September 11, 2001. I actually cried while reading this book and that doesn't happen to me very often. It was very moving and very well written. If you enjoyed the first 4 books in this series you'll love this one. A must read for any Blackstock fan.
