How about The Hound of the Baskervilles by Author Conan Doyle. The whole book is full of suspense but there is one point where a description of the death of a character ends when the person describing it says he found footprints.
"A man or a woman's?"
"Mr. Holmes, they were the footprints of a gigantic hound!"
END OF CHAPTER 2
Now *that* is suspense - you can pratically hear the music go "Dum dum duuuuuum".
I need and example of suspense from a book.c an anyone help me?
Chapters 11 and 12 of Lord of the Flies.
Chapter 11 deals with Piggy's death, and Chapter 12 is when the boys may finally catch Ralph/the climax of the book.
Reply:well, this might sound stupid but if you read the last harry potter book, then that whole part about him dying is suspenseful... seriously, everyone thinks he is dead, then, out of nowhere, he isn't.
Reply:ok.. from warriors: riasing storm:
last page. fireheart runs into his enemy, tigerclaw, at a gathering. tigerclaw in the previous book, tied to kill his own leader, but fireheart stopped him, and tigerclaw was driven of, swaering' keep your ears pricked and claws sharp, kittypet. because one day i'll find you, and then you'll be crowfood.'
now fireheart sees hm at a gathering, now tigerstar, leader of another clan......
"framed by the cold light of the moon, fireheart saw the powerfull shoulders and brod head of the cat who had leaped onto the rock beside tallstar. the olther leader seemed puny and frail next to this massive figure. and with a cold shiver of dread, fireheart saw that the new leader of shadowclan was tigerclaw....."
end of book..
