Goodreads asked Derek Power:

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

Derek Power My most recent book "The Impossible Victim" is actually based of an old Irish legend. Irish mythology has always had two healing gods, Dian Cecht and Miach. In the tale Dian Cecht becomes jealous of Miach, his son, as he is able to heal a wound from a battle that Dian Cecht never could. This leads to him killing his son. I thought it would be an interesting twist to make that a murder mystery that needed to be investigated by Filthy Henry.
