A Goodreads user asked Paul Letters:

I found your book on Goodreads and being a history buff, I cant wait to read about the RAF aircraft and the story inspired by your grandmother's escape from the Nazis. I am always looking for a new author that weaves history into a novel and tells a great story. Does living in Hong Kong inspire you to write and if so how? Sandy

Paul Letters Hi Sandy. Those are the elements I've endeavored to incorporate in A Chance Kill (ACK), so I hope you enjoy it. Whereas my upbringing in England/Europe, living close to my Polish gran, gave me the ingredients for ACK, now that I'm in Hong Kong I am inspired to write about this part of the world. I write articles for Hong Kong's main English-language newspaper, and the dynamism of this part of the world is often inspirational. So is the history, which feels largely untapped here; now that I'm looking, I'm finding so many stories just waiting to burst out into a novel or three!
