Goodreads asked Sowmya Thejomoorthy:

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

Sowmya Thejomoorthy This is actually pretty hard to answer because I can't really put my finger to one particular thing or person or incident that inspired me.
I knew for sure that I wanted the story to be set in the Nilgris mountain ranges. So, I guess, I can say that my little vacation in those breathtakingly beautiful place created the first spark. And then, I asked myself why was I so intent in setting my story there and realised that it was the greenery there.
This revelation helped me flesh out one of the main characters: Ray Bastian.
From then on, the ideas just literally seeped into my frenetic fingers.
