John Saul provides examples of the following tropes:

• Adult Fear: You better believe that when the protagonist is an adult in Saul's books, s/he will have kids and will be afraid for their health and well-being.
• Creepy Child: Featured quite frequently in Saul's works.
• Science Is Bad: This is used in The God Project, and Brainchild.
• Town with a Dark Secret: Saul uses this trope so frequently, it would be easier to list the books that don't use this!
