The novel's plot involves a superfund site that is based on the real Brio Superfund site in the South Belt area,〔Gray, Lisa. "(Friendswood in fact and fiction )." ''Houston Chronicle''.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). p. 4 (4/4). Retrieved on October 7, 2014. "At the Brio Superfund site, located at: 11810 South Hill Drive Houston, TX 77089"〕 The author, who lived in Brooklyn in 2014, originated from and was raised in Friendswood. The author stated that she "wanted to write about the particular textures of Friendswood itself—the Quaker church in the center of town, the humidity and heat, the local Mexican restaurant, the country music I heard so often in the background."〔 She added that "The Friendswood in the novel is fictional. I was more interested in creating the essence of the place than its actual, factual geography."〔
In 2014 Elizabeth Fowler, Susan Duff, and Dannielle Thomas obtained the rights to make a film version of ''Friendswood''.〔
