Goodreads asked Jamie Sinclair:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Jamie Sinclair The idea came from an article I read a couple of years ago on the BBC website about Ferry Pilots which, until then, I was completely unaware of. There had also been stories in the news about children imprisoned in their own homes. Then I read When She Was Bad which made me consider tandem plots and this book is the result. I use the theatre as a setting and to move the plot forward simply because my wife and I are big fans of live theatre and it fits the idea that the central character reinvents herself. The theatre in the book is just down the road from our house.
