The Line of Duty series spans seven books examining different law enforcement characters and the cases that define their careers. Janice Cantore uses the series to explore various aspects of police work from patrol officers to detectives to specialized units, each book featuring a new protagonist facing crimes that challenge their professional skills and personal faith.
The “line of duty” concept allows Cantore to examine what it means to serve, the sacrifices officers make, and how Christian faith helps or hinders when facing the realities of law enforcement. She writes about the moral complexity of policing from a perspective that values both justice and mercy, creating characters who must decide when to follow procedure and when to trust their conscience.
The series demonstrates Cantore’s range within Christian crime fiction, moving between different types of investigations and law enforcement roles while maintaining consistent themes of duty, faith, and the search for justice. For readers who want multiple entry points into Christian police procedurals, Line of Duty offers seven different perspectives on serving in law enforcement.
