Book Reviews of A Thin Dark Line
Book Review: Dark and alluring!
Summary: 4 Stars
It's no mystery that there is corruption in every aspect of our everyday lives. But as a police officer in Bayou Breaux, Louisiana, Annie Broussard is beginning to think that every person she works with is possessed by some deep secret. And that those secrets could very well be the key to a series of rapes and killings that plague that small, cajun town. And those secrets may very well end up being the death of Broussard, if she doesn't find out the truth before the killer gets to her. Told in a hauntingly realistic voice, Tami Hoag once again delivers a brilliant mystery thriller, ripe with detail and atmosphere, well-written dialogue, and unforgettable characters. Count me in with what I'm certain must be thousands, if not millions, of Hoag fans! ...
Book Review: Darkness Prevails
Summary: 5 Stars
This was the first Tami Hoag book I ever read, and what brought me to check out city, were three things: the Louisiana setting (no place like it); the packaging (red attracts me like a bull); and that enchanting storyline on the back cover. From page one, I was captivated by Annie's courage and wit. I love a determined female protaganist who fights for what she wants, and Nick--well, let's just say, we need more men like him.
A murderer goes free based on a technicality, and a town is embroiled in a lynching type of mentality. Annie, is a straight-arrow deputy, whose loyalties are challenged when she is forced to arrest fellow officer, Nick, who is beating the acquitted murderer, Marcus to a pulp in a darkened alley.
The story is awesome, especially when set against a Cajun background, and with that spicy, local flavor thrown into the mix, how could you go wrong?
Book Review: Definitely a page-turner!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is definitely one of the best books I have ever read. I found myself staying up far too late at night telling myself I would read "just one more chapter". Tami keeps you guessing as the plot takes on more and more twists with each page you read. Excellent!Book Review: Didn't like
Summary: 2 Stars
This was my first book by Tami Hoag and maybe my last. The first few pages were good, but it quickly got too descriptive and boring. I skipped many pages. I guessed who dunnit before it was revealed.Book Review: Don't waste your money!!
Summary: 1 Stars
If you are thinking about buying this book... stop. I loved Dark Paradise by Tami Hoag and eagerly bought A Thin Dark Line. It is gathering dust on my nightstand. I don't even like any of the main characters. I may try again but only because I hate to waste money.
