Goodreads asked Josef Matulich:

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

Josef Matulich Oddly enough, I've had a few brushes with dead bodies in the past. A poor young man had drowned himself in Mirror Lake on the OSU campus and I felt myself drawn to the deep end of the pond. Didn't know why until he rose to the surface a few days later. Some years after that, I happened to come up to a railroad crossing immediately after a child had bee run over on the tracks. I had no idea what had happened then, but I developed a screaming headache. A decade later, I rented an apartment a stone's throw away from that crossing with no ill effects.
