The American Thriller

Gary Hoppenstand

"This volume in the Critical Insights series presents a variety of new essays on the American thriller, a genre in which 'ordinary' heroes are faced with an enemy set on destroying them or something treasured such as freedom or democracy. Rounding out the volume are a list of related thrillers not discussed in the book as well as a bibliography of critical sources for readers seeking to study this theme in greater depth."--Provided by publisher
