From an early age, Gunn was exposed to the insidious evils of Yardie gangsters, crack cocaine and black-on-black gun crime. Unable to escape his destiny, he works his way through the criminal ranks and becomes the leader of the most feared Islamic-inspired criminal gang in Brixton, London. Now he wants out. He desires to leave that world behind, give his life to Islam and immigrate to Egypt.
But with the ambitious Yardie gangster, Tommy Terrible, hungry to make his own mark on the Brixton underworld, Gunn’s crew find themselves on a head-on collision course that explodes in dramatic mayhem.
As volatile clashes between the two groups of young black thugs escalate, one of Tommy Terrible’s gang members is killed, and Gunn is selected as the target of their retaliation.
Can Gunn survive the contract on his life? Will he ever be free of his life of crime? Will he realise his dream of immigrating to Egypt?
You are just one download away from the high-octane, gut-wrenching world of Little Jamaica.
Von Mozar was raised on the Yardie gang-infested streets of Brixton, London.
In the 1990’s he was engulfed in acts of violence and death that debased and destroyed the minds of many who shared the same environment.
He escaped his destructive lifestyle by forcing himself to read, which in turn inspired him to write stories that people from his underprivileged background could engage with and relate to.
For two years, he self-studied creative writing. Then he went on to earn a Diploma in Literature and Creative Writing from The Open University.
Mozar began his writing career in 2002 and in 2004 completed his first novel, Ignorance Kills... He then followed up Sexfiend, Little Jamaica, and Mr. Bling.
Mozar sold over 10,000 paperback books independently in London until he temporarily paused the marketing and sales of his book to pursue a degree in Creative Writing at Kingston University. During his time there, he tutored a vulnerable inner-city youth to write and publish a creative memoir of gang life, Through My Eyes: The Spirit of a Prince.
Mozar graduated in July 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Creative Writing and a 1st Class Special Study in Narrative Techniques in Popular Fiction.
Since leaving university, Mozar has explored a different writing genre, Romantic Realism, which selectively recreates reality as it should or could be. This has led Mozar to develop a crime-thriller series, which is planned for publication in 2017.
