A Man of Integrity is a Jim/Blair story by Lemon Drop.

Reactions and Reviews

Post-series, Blair has become a detective and is working in Major Crimes as Jim's partner. While Jim is away at a conference, Simon asks Blair to go undercover in Homicide to investigate possible corruption. Blair finds more than he ever expected, about the job, about himself, and about Jim. This is an intriguing story, especially with regards to the characterization of Jim: a flawed man, but one who has endured much and who has finally found some measure of peace, peace which is threatened by what Blair's case reveals. Add in an interesting investigation (though not a mystery, per se), some well-drawn OCs, Blair being competent (and being *allowed* to be competent), and Simon being even more awesome than usual and you end up with a satisfying, thought-provoking read.[1]

Blair is now a detective, and Simon sends him on an undercover mission inside the police department. Even though he is supposed to dig up dirt about an officer that he's never met, he ends up finding out things about Jim in the process. I enjoyed this story. It is only the second story that I've ever read where I had no problem with Blair being a top. Jon was a very interesting character. I think that this story could become an epic.[2]

Lemon Drop really knows Jim and Blair, and the feel of The Sentinel. This is a nice long first time fic with a strong focus on their work as detectives. The story develops well and includes interesting original characters. Oh, and also really hot sex.[3]
