In the Line of Duty by Carolyn Arnold Review

NEW RELEASE….

He devoted his life to seeking justice. But would she get any for him?

It was an ordinary day for police officer Barry Weir. It was the end of shift, he was tired, and he just wanted to get home to his wife and kids. But someone had other plans for him, shooting him down and forcing him to make the ultimate sacrifice.

When news of Weir’s murder reaches the department, it leaves Detective Madison Knight and every cop in the Stiles PD itching for revenge. It cuts Madison’s boyfriend, colleague, and Weir’s childhood friend, Troy Matthews, deepest of all, driving him away from everyone he loves just when they need one another the most.

With evidence pointing to a gang-related drive-by, Madison and her team investigate the town’s seedy underbelly in search of justice for their fallen brother. But the deeper they dig, the more convoluted the case becomes. Now they need to figure out if this was a random shooting as part of a gang initiation, a straight-up hate crime, or a targeted kill. But with members of the Stiles PD under attack, they have to do it fast…before more officers pay with their lives.

My Review of In The Line of Duty by Carolyn Arnold

In the Line of Duty by Carolyn Arnold is a gripping story with a few twists and turns along the way. Centered on police detective, Madison Knight and the Stiles Police Department’s loss of a police officer. As each character deals with the loss differently, we see the story unfold from Madison’s eyes.

Carolyn Arnold creates characters with depth and I enjoyed watching as Madison and Troy navigate this loss. Written in a way that keeps you engaged and wanting to know what happens next, the author creates cohesive dialogue that is enjoyable to read.

It was interesting to read a story from a police prospective, especially with how things in our world are unfolding every day. You could feel the tension leap from the page and that made the read so much more intriguing. Even though this is the seventh book in the Madison Knight series, this is my first Carolyn Arnold book. That being said it will not be my last.
