Goodreads asked Sharlene MacLaren:

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

Sharlene MacLaren Since my dad was raised Quaker (Religious Society of Friends), I have always been fascinated with the idea of building a series around the faith. My Dad found Jesus in the Friends Society, so it is near and dear to me. After having written four previous series and some stand-alone novels, I decided, with God's help, to take the plunge into a series about Quakers. I have loved doing the research and learning about the Quaker faith. It's fascinating, and the fact that they were instrumental in starting the Underground Railroad only fueled my fire.
