This flawed hero holds A Thin Dark Line together.Ī Thin Dark Line shows Hoag’s exceptional talent as a storyteller. A Thin Dark Line by Tami Hoag: 9780399178917 : Books Terror stalks the streets of Bayou Breaux, Louisiana. Hoag, who began her career writing romances, makes the complex Fourcade more than a dark, brooding loner. She refuses to allow her skirmishes with sexist colleagues or office politics to detour her from her duties or her ambitions. Broussard is young and vulnerable, but she also is professional and ethical. While Hoag employs some stock characters _ the impressionable young cop, the cynical veteran _ she manages to make each character realistic and unique. Although A Thin Dark Line branches off in many directions, the author holds the continuity of the fast-paced plot. Hoag, whose best-sellers include Night Sins, a recent made-for-TV movie, and its sequel Guilty as Sin, has produced a solid tale. ![]() ![]() How different, Broussard wonders, was Renard’s stalking than the anger she has encountered by refusing the sexual advance of a collegue? When does a person’s desire for justice and security become an undisciplined obsession with a life of its own? As A Thin Dark Line progresses, the author subtly draws parallels between the characters’ actions. ![]()
