Goodreads asked Nathan Swain:

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

Nathan Swain The idea for The Eden Deception originated from a BBC documentary I watched on YouTube around the Spring of 2013. The host was a professor of archaeology at a university in England. She was an expert on various issues concerning the archaeology of the Biblical world. The episodes of the documentary concerned multiple subjects about the Bible - one of them focused on the Garden of Eden. The professor became the inspiration for one of the main characters in The Eden Deception - University of Cambridge Professor of Archaeology and Assyriology Olivia Nazarian.
