Goodreads asked Emmeline Duncan:

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

Emmeline Duncan IIt's not a personal-to-me mystery, but I've always been fascinated by the DB Cooper hijacking. For anyone who hasn't heard the story, Cooper hijacked a plane flying between Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, Washington, in 1971. The FBI paid the ransom. Cooper skydived out of the plane with the money . . . and has never been caught. Some of the money was found in 1980 on a sandbar in the Columbia River, but no one knows if Cooper survived or who he really was.
