No, but two fun facts:
-The earliest version in my head for Asim’s character (over a decade ago) was Iranian-American, but later shifted him to be Egyptian-American since I’m just way more familiar with Egypt.
-Mohamed loves detective scenes and has really great taste, so he helped stress-test and tweak Asim’s dialog in his interrogation/conversation scenes, among giving feedback on the novel broadly.
