Goodreads asked Derek Padula:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Derek Padula The mystery of who stole my PlayStation 2. I was living with two roommates who it turned out after I moved in were drug addicts. They had druggy friends, and one day after I returned home from work my room had been broken into, the lock busted, and my PlayStation 2 and its 40+ games were missing. My roommates acted like they had no idea, or that it was my fault. So I called the police and filed a report, but they said they would never find it, and it was most likely already pawned off for drug money. So I think this would make for an interesting mystery plot.
