Patrick J. Lee

Patrick J. Lee grew up in South Africa, where he worked as a journalist and screenwriter. He later lived in London before moving to the USA. While living in Connecticut he wrote the crime thriller "The Flies of August" (under the author name P. J. Lee).

Although "On The Wild Coast" is a work of fiction, the environs of "Port Victoria" will be familiar to anyone who has visited that eastern coastal area of South Africa between Port Edward and East London.
