Goodreads asked Paul Ilett:

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

Paul Ilett I went through a phase of doing a lot of driving for work, and survived many long dull journeys by listening to the news on the radio. It was during the period where the phone hacking scandal was breaking and the media was effectively reporting on itself. Over a period of months a story began to form in my mind, so much so that by the time I set down to write Exposé I knew exactly what would happen from start to finish. I even knew the final line of the book.
