The Thin Pink Line borders on being a complete and total mess. It is difficult to get through and I was soon skimming pages so that I could finish it and move on to something better.
The character is suppose to be british but appears much more American (in her speech and traditions). This takes away from the setting and character development because is disrupts the flow and continuity.
The characters with the exception of David have no redeeming qualities and the further you get into the story line, the slower it drags. The ending is contrived and nothing is resolved.
Skip this book.
Grade: D
