Goodreads asked Mark Edward Langley:

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

Mark Edward Langley Death Waits in the Dark began with a thought: since Arthur is a former Marine and ex-Border Patrol Shadow Wolf, what if his first true love contacted him asking him for help finding out who killed her two sons. Then I thought, since I know people who suffer from it, what if the underlying factor in Arthur and Sharon's life is struggling with PTSD.

Then I began wondering what if I mixed that with extortion, oil drilling and fracking actually taking place in that area of New Mexico, along with Arthur being pitted against an old foe from his Shadow Wolf days. With all these ingredients mixed proportionally, tense situations are bound to occur. And when the evidence points to someone Arthur thought he knew, he has to make the toughest decision of his life.
