Thriller

Read Acts 22-24

Acts 23:12 "And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul."

A thriller is packed with danger and action. The protagonist or her family or the country or the earth might be wiped out at any moment.

The thriller is usually a globally focused story. The dangers that the protagonist is fighting are threatening a large area and a lot of people, not usually just the protagonist and his immediate family and friends.

Failure will mean the end of life as we know it, so the protagonist can’t afford to fail. However, the antagonist must be a powerful enemy so the reader is kept on the edge of his seat wondering who is going to be victorious in the end.
