However, all passengers are accounted for, leaving Lo to wonder if she is going mad or if there is a plot against her after what she witnessed.

 Suspense has always played a major role in dark stories. Thriller, horror and even dark fantasy often make use of suspense to emphasise the feeling of dread. Whether it is a high energy scene such as a chase or a low energy scene such as an investigation in a creepy house, suspense plays a part in telling a thrilling tale.
Here are some of my key rules for writing suspense.  It’s the haunting time of the year, where ghosts, werewolves and all manner of darker beings walk amongst the vulnerable and innocent. Evil stalks the streets, fear builds in every heart, until all are wide-eyed and paranoid.

Darren and I looked tough even with the hair cut and fancy suit. Still, it kept the lawmen from looking at us too long.
