Goodreads asked Patrick D. Joyce:

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

Patrick D. Joyce My grandparents lived in a big, old house on a hill that had a hidden staircase, a cellar with winding corridors, and a creaky attic. Maybe it's why I love gothic mysteries like Jane Eyre and Rebecca, and why the setting of a story is so important to me.
