I don't know if this fits your criteria exactly, but Eve Dallas in JD Robb's In Death series of novels is a person who does the job because it's the job. She's a cop who finds justice because it's justice and that's what she does, what she is. I'm listening to Memory In Death and there is a plotline on this exact thing. Sorry I can't give page numbers, cause I'm listening, but I think it's on disc 5. HTH!!!
