Review the line from Karin Slaughter’s NPR interview.

And with each page, that's what I try to do – is say something different about the character, something different in the reactions when they find these horrible things that are happening, or they figure out a piece of the puzzle.

How does this view contrast with Lee Child's central idea in "A Simple Way to Create Suspense"?

Child feels that characters are not important to the plot. Slaughter feels characters are central.
Child feels that characters must be unattractive and uninteresting. Slaughter feels they must have reactions.
Slaughter builds suspense through her characters. Child builds suspense by delaying answers.
Slaughter builds suspense by writing puzzles. Child builds suspense by telling anecdotes.
