Plot twists are a unique element of the craft of writing used by writers of all genres – from

surprising plot twist can hook an audience and keep readers turning pages, right down to the
final scene.
Mastering Plots Twists is your essential guide to crafting a quick pace with more focused narrative
and action, all by using the artful, unexpected plot twist. The result is more nuanced,
multifaceted books that sell and develop a devoted readership.
