Goodreads asked Sylvia Ashby:

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

Sylvia Ashby From Eurostar departure lounge, literally. I can’t say more because I’d spoil the plot.
The Treachery of Trains is about a girl that’s lost. To begin with, she’s only lost metaphorically – Sky’s mum has died three years ago and her best friend has left London without as much as a backward glance. Sky feels abandoned by everyone dear to her heart. Then she gets lost literally. That’s when the fun really starts.
I could tell you that on her first day in a new city Sky rings the doorbell of a stranger who gets the door dripping wet and in a skimpy towel. Then both of them get locked out of their respective flats.
