Goodreads asked S. Escobar:

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

S. Escobar "A Song Beyond Walls" had always been a tiny seed of inspiration: the piano, the crumbling old house, the lonely man who desperately waits to hear the phantom play; but once I saw the painting "Spirite" (1885) by George Roux it was really very clear. Finally, it all came together when I was pursuing an anthology about a romantic ghost story centered upon Samhain, the thinning of the veil between the world of the living and the dead.
