About this book

Off Jamaica’s coast, the Coral Breeze hotel promises comfort, opportunity, and escape. For one family, every invitation carries a debt.

In 1925, a young maid accepts a position that could transform her life—only to discover someone requested her by name. Thirty years later, a relative follows a trail of suppressed letters and plantation records back to the island. In 1985, an exhausted married couple accepts a free getaway, entering a hotel where the dead still have unfinished business.

Connecting them is a bargain made in 1775, when an enslaved mother turned to a bush doctor to save her daughter from a brutal fate. Generations later, Ramirez remains bound to the property, guarding the Book of Names and waiting for the descendants promised to him.

Across three intimate horror novellas, survival depends on practical ingenuity, dangerous family knowledge, and the courage to challenge a power that has spent centuries making captivity feel inevitable.

About the author

D. G. James

The author is dedicated to bringing the untold stories, settings, and complexities of Jamaican life into psychological thrillers, urban dramas, and speculative fiction. His creative journey began as a teenager in Jamaica, sparked by a history assignment that challenged him to imagine the lived reality of a young man captured into the Middle Passage. This early fascination with the internal human experience stayed with him as he later moved to the U.S. and entered the military.
During his active-duty service starting in 1999, James finally put pen to paper for his first major project, a story titled The Martian Chronicles, which would ultimately evolve into his published work, The Red Myths. While his military background provides a foundation of technical realism and jargon for his world-building, his true passion lies in centering Jamaican characters and situations in genres where they are rarely seen.
Whether he is navigating the grit of urban drama or the mind-bending tension of a psychological thriller, James writes to bridge cultural heritage and modern storytelling. Beyond his fiction, he writes self-help books designed to help readers reclaim and master their personal narratives.
