A native New Yorker, writing has been a passion for Sloane Swinton since pubescence. Instructors in high school and college alike noticed the raw talent and creative enthusiasm Sloane displayed, encouraging the author to pursue fiction as a trade.
Little did the author know that a bohemian lifestyle of low wages and even lesser praise awaited.
Swinton is an avid basketball fan and lover of mathematics, classical music, sweatpants, Black Cherry soda, Fruit Punch Snapple, fried plantains, the New York Mets, and the occasional ham, egg and cheese on a French roll for breakfast.

The Legend Of Neville Shedd
|
"It is only through the tragic lens of death that we may be able learn the beautiful meaning of life."
Nowhere was the above-referenced quote more relevant than to the existence of MAVUTO LOYISO, a former South African officer turned gun for hire. Since adolescence—Mav—as the world had come to know him—was forced to endure.
Beginning with his father's unsolved murder to making ends meet in present-day Johannesburg, some might gather that nihilism had a stranglehold on Mav's consciousness. That it was the danger that he had become most attracted to.
His latest job promised that and much more as he was contracted with the responsibility of transferring and protecting NEVILLE SHEDD, a rogue British national with more aliases than clean pairs of knickers.
For one night, Mav must keep him safe until British authorities arrive in Jo-burg. Unbeknownst to him, there's a substantial bounty on Shedd. His enemies are both far too many to count and determined to make sure the mercenary doesn't make it off of the continent in one piece.
What began as an opportunity for some fast cash has been transformed into a dance with the worst the devil has to offer—putting Mav's nihilism to the test. The signals may not be the only thing that have been crossed.
The past has a way of catching up to us all.
