Writing A Thriller

Writing A Thriller (1999) by André Jute – A & C Black
Sold by Crappy Old Books – Plot twists not guaranteed, page creases very much are.

Part how-to guide, part manifesto, André Jute’s Writing A Thriller delivers a no-nonsense crash course in building tension, crafting killers, and keeping readers hooked until the final page. Published in 1999, it’s equal parts old-school discipline and dry wit, with advice that ranges from pacing and structure to avoiding clichés (even the ones you’re secretly fond of).

Our copy? It’s done a few rounds. The cover’s seen better days, and someone’s scribbled “more gore?” in the margin of Chapter 5. But the spine still holds, and the advice still lands like a well-placed plot twist.

Crappy Old Books – Because not every writer starts with a pristine guidebook.

Fine condition.
