Well, as I say, I had a little help from PBS. The blues is
one of my favourite kinds of music, but I'd never heard of
Ruby Walker or most of the others before, and was surprised
to find they were real people.
I forgot to mention that I'm not too keen on the supernatural
in my crime fiction and this book seems to rely on a little
of that at the end.
