For suspense, tension grows as the dialogue
continues; making the reader wait for the answer. Description is setting the scene without
telling and the dialogue exchange adds suspense before revealing the answer. When creating conflict scenes between two or
more characters, you might consider dialogue to delay and reveal the answer in
another scene.
Below is an excerpt from the Thriller book: Secret
Terror In Wavelengths
“Find somewhere no one would think to look for us,”
Nar said.
“And then,” Ilyon said. A suspicious glint came into
his eyes.
“Do we get to know where we are going?” Ilyon said.
“Why
do I have a suppressed feeling about this?”
For a long moment they just looked at each other.
“We might find a way to enter the Faster Quantum
undetected,”
Nar said.
“Yes if humans find and duplicate the right
wavelength,”
Ilyon said. “Our changed wavelengths could possibly
travel and
never be noticed next to theirs.”
“Anyone that strays to close is attached,” Ilyon
admitted
pursing his lips. “Wave links are also projected
directly
into their minds. We have wave links monitoring
individual’s
actions and speech. Their speech is monitored
through seismic
wavelengths. The Wave Links know what desirable
mental
prompting to project into humans changing the course
of
thoughts to our direction.”
“Excellent,” Nar said. “You will tell us how our
technology is
a success to increase our attacks.”
“Distractions are constantly sent into the minds of
individuals.”
