Overview
Dark Thoughts is a collection of eleven stories linked by a noir aesthetic; characters are cornered, caught and facing their own demise. An advice columnist receives a letter from a murderer and discovers she is the next intended victim. A drifter obsessed with the exploits of a serial killer falls in love, and into a trap. A painter contemplates her final brush stroke-with death. Set on city streets from the 1930s and 50s, to the present day and beyond, these stories bristle with the grit of noir. While some are lighter, and others darker, all are about people forced by circumstance to escape their situation-or die trying. Dark Thoughts is Hope Thompson's first collection.
