Sarai Rayne asked Tommy Wallach:

Tommy, What idea did you get when you thought of ¨Thanks for the Trouble¨, and how did you come up with the characters?

Tommy Wallach What idea did I get? I'm not sure what that means! But the concept came from a couple of movies, primarily "Let the Right One In" and "Before Sunrise." As for the characters, I first invented Parker for an old book I never finished called "The Bright Child." I just moved him over into this book. Zelda was her own magic thing. I don't know where she came from! :)
