Publisher's summary

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 30-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.

One firefighter is unaccounted for - was he really buried, or did he take the opportunity to flee from the problems in his life?

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?
Dial up another mystery in the Newpointe 911 series.

Enjoyed listening to on my trip

I enjoyed this book and the entire series. I did think some of the character accents sounded a little strange and not really how I had imagined them speaking.

Twists and Turns of Suspense!!

I really enjoyed this book! I couldn't seem to put it down! I loved the characters and could relate to some of them and could see people from my life in the story. Truly enjoyed reading this novel! I highly recommend it!! The only reason I marked down a star for performance was due to the narration. It wasn't what I was used to listening too but still delightful.

Spectacular ending to a series!

So well written. I have come to love the characters of Newpointe and sad to see this series end. This book has suspense, love, tears, happiness, all the emotions! I love how she works in Scripture and she gives the reader/listener thoughts of what would we do in a situation similar. Their are situations that the characters experience that everyday people could experience even from other causes. I loved the part of “strong enough to be weak” straight to the soul. Amazing series, once you start you won’t want to stop!!

Good series

A very good series. Enjoyed it very much. The narrator bothered me but once you got past that the storyline in each book was captivating.

Really Great Book Once Again!!!!

Thus far, I have read &/or listened to many of T Blackstock’s books and I’m never disappointed! The characters in this series were great! I felt like I was right there with them and had come to know them well! The narrator has always done a great job with her books. He’s my favorite reader of all the various books/authors I’ve listened too! I’m so thankful for these books, because they’re clean, with good morals and values, and most importantly they are centered around our Lord Jesus! Thank you so much Terri Blackstock! You’re and awesome writer. Please keep bringing us fun, great, exciting, and enjoyable books!
