Eve loves to read (and watch) dramatic stories and thrillers and was compelled to write The Crash after reading about some friends in a car who crashed into the middle of nowhere. She wondered what might happen if a larger group, made up of people who didn't really like each other, were put in a similar situation. The Crash is a story about survival, teamwork but above everything else it is about friendship.
