Goodreads asked B.R. Maycock:

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

B.R. Maycock This is probably an evil one ... If it's the one I've just started? I'll be honest, it was the fact that I once asked my kids and husband if they could organise the pyjamas, as I had to fly down to the shops. None of them knew where the pjs were kept. So I started to ask them questions. Nobody(including husband) knew where wellies, hats, gloves, the Hoover ... the list went on. I think in every house you have different people assigned to different tasks, and the other person would be lost without them, they're a team for a reason!
