Goodreads asked Alyssa Cooper:

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

Alyssa Cooper My most recent book, The Witches of Armour Hill: Switch, was inspired by a legend from Peterborough, Ontario - my summer sanctuary, as well as the most haunted city in Ontario.

In 1840, a woman from Peterborough was tried for witchcraft. When she was found guilty, the townspeople dragged her to the top of Armour Hill, and they burned her alive. Switch is the story of her descendents - of all the witches they couldn't burn, and the magical lives they've built within the modern world.
