Thriller. Hero. Suit Up!

Ever read an empty thriller? The events and excitement are only so interesting without a dynamic hero at the center of the story. We resonate with characters, not plots. No matter how good a plot, without a strong protagonist to hold it together it becomes flat and lifeless.

I find Forever and a Death by Donald Westlake fascinating, but because it was originally a Bond script and turned into a novel without Bond, the protagonist of the piece is a little flat and lifeless.

When your life starts to feel rushed and chaotic, remember: Thrillers need heroes. Suit Up!

Suit Up! With Martin Rooney's debut thriller: Blood Feud

When terminal cancer pushes Cain to the brink, an assassination attempt thrusts him back into a life of violence. But this isn’t a random hit—someone wants Cain silenced after he stumbles on a devastating secret: the billionaires profiting from cancer are also hiding its cure.

On today's episode we talk with Martin about his background in athletics, the backstory to writing Blood Feud, his literary influences, favorite super hero and much more!
