Goodreads asked Victor Ghoshe:

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

Victor Ghoshe 2010, I was reading a book on old Kolkata and was intrigued to know more about the seventeen century Bengal. My research on the period became very interesting and I came to know about many interesting things about the time and the place.....
But I decided to develop a plot around it....only when I found that the treasury of Shayesta Khan - the governor of Bengal was looted during the Hooghly war by the British forces lead by Job Charnock and the treasure was never found.
