Breach of Honor

GIVEAWAY

CANTORE, JANICE
BREACH OF HONOR

As a police officer in Table Rock, Oregon, Leah Radcliff puts her life on the line to help others every day. But at home, Leah's battling her own personal nightmare: Brad, her abusive husband, a fellow officer, celebrated hero, and beloved son of a powerful prominent family. Brad's violent outbursts and suspicious activities have left Leah physically and emotionally scarred, until one desperate action to put a stop to his abuse results in deadly consequences.

Though public opinion seems ready to convict Leah, Officer Clint Tanner is one of the few to believe she acted in self-defence. As he works with Leah's attorney to produce the evidence they need, new truths about Brad's dark side come to light -- and reveal a deep-rooted problem in Table Rock. There are some who have breached their sworn duty to serve and protect...and they'll do anything to keep their secret safe.

My Review:

"God works in ways none of us understands. If we completely understood everything that goes on in the world, then we would be God, or at least make ourselves gods. Have faith that God knows the big picture and it will all work out the way he intends it to. The right thing to ask is 'Show me how you're working and what my job is in all of this.'"

Best take away from a fiction book in a long time! I really love how the author showcases the real, flawed struggle Leah has with holding onto to faith. And, since this story spans a few years, I was really able to see God's hand in her life, and in Clint's. How He turned even the worst circumstances to good. So inspiring and a reminder that God always has a plan even when I can't see it.

This novel is divided into three parts and because of the longer timespan, provides the opportunity to really develop characters and grow the suspense. And yet the story never lags, I was on the edge of my seat the whole read through. The author was a police officer for twenty-two years and it shows in the way she develops the procedural aspects of police work. It's complicated and edgy and oh-so-emotional! I want to say so much, but won't because of spoilers, but Cantore surprised me again and again with where she took these characters. Stellar stuff.

"To prayer, the first weapon in every battle."

  3. I have enjoyed past books by Janice & her experiences as a police officer shows in her writing!

    I wasn't sure about this one because of the subject matter (spousal abuse) having gone through it myself in my first marriage years ago. Even though God has healed me of those past scars, it's still really hard for me to read in fiction. But I'd sure give this one a chance because of the author. 😊

    1. I'm so sorry you went through that, Trixi! Not sure if this would be triggering for you or not. It's a lot more than the abuse, though that's the catalyst that starts things rolling. I do think the author handled the subject matter really well. Good luck, Trixi!

  4. I also went through a lot of mental abuse years ago. It left a lot of scars but I came through it with God's help.

  7. I love the quote as well and your evaluation of the story. Hurt is so much harder to walk through when it comes through those closest to us. From those we love and those we look up too. rrwalter34atgmaildotcom
