MY THOUGHTS AND BOOK REVIEW
Code of courage is a powerful and inspiring Christian law enforcement mystery book revolving around the character Danni. The plotline portrays how the general public hate the police when they are quick to believe a false narrative. Danny went an extra mile for her victims. In fifteen years of her cop life, Danni never felt so vulnerable, fearful and disgusting. She felt she was powerless and so out of control. The city La Rosa, Danni's hometown was burning, three police cars had been destroyed. Danni was facing an angry and hateful mob. Danni loved her Job and was almost quitting her work as a cop because she was hit by a concrete on her forehead where she could have fractured her skull. This was a nightmare as it was terrifying for her to face angry mobs and chaos which she was never in control. For the first time in her fifteen year career she was injured on her duty. But the shooting of the Tribune's Thomas Johnston turns her decision to quit gets her back to investigate the case further with Matt.
Danni was divorced for two years from marriage to La Rosa's city prosecutor Gabriel Fox - Gabe. He wasn't in her life anymore. Frank Grace her father was a legend at La Rosa PD. Danni followed Frank her father's footsteps to become a cop. He was an example to Danni who did his Job effortlessly and effectively for twenty five years in uniform. She grew up in a Christian family. Why should she risk her life on the line for such an ungrateful public? An eye opening story on how police system must handle case loads with care. The book also shows how police can't work their cases without victimizing the victims of crime twice. It's ridiculous and insane that cops are being hurt and the perpetrators face no consequences. Very enjoyable read and full of suspense, a gripping page turner till the end.
I just reviewed the book Code of Courage by Janice Cantore. Thanks to Tyndale House Publisher and NetGalley for this book for my honest review.
Book Description
Detective Danni Grace has never met a police officer who wants to face a scenario where pulling the trigger on another person is the only option. When the worst does occur and there’s a police-involved shooting, it leads to riots and calls to disband the entire police force in La Rosa, Danni’s hometown.
After fifteen years on the force, Danni has had enough. Injured in the line of duty when a protester throws a chunk of concrete at her and shaken by the vitriol being shown to the police, Danni realizes for the first time that she’s lost her passion for the job.
While she’s on a leave of absence, though, a community activist in La Rosa is shot and a fellow officer is blamed for his murder. Taking on this case means stepping back into a job Danni’s not sure she can do anymore . . . and working closely with her ex-husband, Gabriel Fox, an investigator for the city prosecutor’s office. Danni will need to tap into her code of courage to uncover the truth, prevent another injustice, and uphold her oath to serve and protect.
