Goodreads asked Sylvia McNicoll:

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

Sylvia McNicoll Revenge on the Fly was inspired by an archived Hamilton Spectator article entitled "Kill the Fly, Save the Baby". Those words, so dramatic, made me ask all kinds of questions. I can't believe we've all forgotten that, once upon a time, scientists blamed all diseases on the transporting of germs by fly feet.
