Back to All Events
Even the least readerly among us knows the classic suspense tropes: red herrings and cliff hangers and femme fatales and endings with a twist. Most of these elements are forced upon the characters from outside sources. But there is something else that keeps the pages turning long into the night, and that is the inner struggle. Be it a person or memory from the past, an unreliable narrator, dark tendencies or conflicted emotions; these too create a tension that cannot be ignored.
