Book Reviews of A Thin Dark Line
Book Review: A Great Choice If You Feel Like Reading A Murder Mystery
Summary: 5 Stars
This was my first Tami Hoag novel, and I highly enjoyed it. The characters were extremely well developed. Tami definitely has a penchant for writing great dialog. This novel will definitely keep you guessing until the end and makes you think twice about cases where everyone swears so-and-so is the killer (eg, I hate to say it, the OJ Simpson case).Book Review: A Nice, Suspenseful Read
Summary: 4 Stars
Taking a few threads from previous novels, Tami Hoag's A THIN DARK LINE centers around the murder of a young real estate agent in a small Louisiana town. Spearheading the investigation is hot-headed(and not particularly level-headed)detective Nick Fourcade, who early on in the book manages to get himself thrown from the investigation and ultimately suspended after beating the prime suspect to within an inch of his life. He then relies on the help of Annie Broussard, a police deputy not particularly liked by in the precinct(mostly it seems because she's a woman). While Hoag drops a few more suspects in throughout the book, you'd be hardpressed to guess who the murderer ends up being--I was definately surprised. For the most part, Hoag has a good grasp of narrative, though she probably could have cut the page count on this significantly had she been more concise more often. Overall, Hoag will keep you in suspense enough throughout to keep you sticking around 'til the end.
Book Review: A Thin Dark Line
Summary: 5 Stars
Ms. Hoag did an great job on this book. It was written about an area that is not far from my location. The language used and the text in which things were phrased could not have been any closer to perfect than it was. I literally could not put the book down. Each page pulled me into the story further than the one before it. This book is a must for anyone who love's mystery's.Book Review: A Thin Dark Line

Tami Hoag is the best at keeping you in suspense. After reading three of her books, I still couldn't figure out "who done it". But, I'm sorry to say that I won't be reading her books again. I just don't see why the language has to be so vile. I couldn't get passed all of the cursing. I wish that she would clean up the language and just focus on the plot.Book Review: A Thin Dark Line
