Goodreads asked Lori Rader-Day:

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

Lori Rader-Day The disappearance of Debra Jean Cole, the girl down the street. I knew her from the school bus. I wrote about this case and how it intersected (and in part inspired) my novel The Lucky One in the PS section at the back of the book.

It is not really a mystery *who* happened to her, but she has never been found.
