Goodreads asked John Ferak:

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

John Ferak I was a newspaper journalist in Omaha, Nebraska, so I covered the entire case surrounding the shocking farmhouse slayings of the well-liked couple in rural Nebraska. A few years later, I covered the CSI scandal that emerged from the shadows of the original double murders. Several Nebraskans strongly urged me to write a true-crime book about the case. I knew the case would be of national interest and no else had seemed interested in pursuing a book, so I did it.
