Tone

Psychological thrillers often start more subtly than a traditional thriller. The MC (often female) is usually a fairly ordinary person…or she seems to be. She is likely to be hiding dark secrets, or she’s had some event in her past that makes people question her stability when it comes to light. The tension builds as the plot develops, just like in a traditional thriller. You should engage all the senses and find ways to heighten tension and stoke fear. You want your reader caught up in the action, even if it’s mental action more than physical action.

Plot

Ch. 1

This is the introductory chapter, where you introduce your MC and allow readers to see how very ordinary she is. She shouldn’t be standing out in many ways at all yet. She can be happily married, single, divorced, a mother, childless, successful, or down on her luck, but she should be relatable and even likable. You shouldn’t hint at all about the possible secrets or darkness in her past.
