My band was playing a gig at the North Cottesloe Surf Club. A girl was found murdered in bushland and was thought to have gone missing immediately after attending our show that night. Police came to question me as to whether I could recall her and who she may have been with. Unfortunately I could not remember her from the crowd. Later it was established that she had gone home to her apartment first. Officially the case remains unsolved.

I went to see my friend and music collaborator Martin Cilia playing with The Atlantics, a famous surf music band of the 60s. My brain just started kicking in with ideas for a TV series or film. In the end I decided to write a book.
