Goodreads asked C.J. Lyons:

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

C.J. Lyons I've actually used several mysteries from my own life as a Pediatric ER doc in my novels as inspiration (I never, ever use real life people!) these include a Munchausen by Proxy case (SLEIGHT OF HAND) along with several child homicides/abuse cases. (FACE TO FACE)

Life as a pediatric ER doc definitely has provided me with a ton of insight into people at both their best and their worst.
