Born in April of 1969 in Kingston, Jamaica, Horace S. Mallette has been writing songs and poems since primary school for his friends and for personal use. A few of his poems have been published in the local newspaper The Sunday Gleaner under the moniker Kevin Garfield Brown (KGB), an alias he created while going to high school because of a fascination with world politics at the time. It is an interest he still holds. Horace, who has two teenage daughters, is trained in accounting, and spent most of his work life in the local shipping industry. He enjoys spending time with his kids, gardening, and writing. As an author, he appreciates all genres of literature, and in this, his debut novella, he is writing in one of his favorite: supernatural fiction.
